Personally I think the Sedan version of the new S class is much more attractive. The bulging wheel arches on the sedan make it look athletic and sleek because the car has length to it. The Coupe is not quite long enough to pull them off but yet has them anyway making it look too thick and heavy.

Like many other of the S class coupes its apparent that Mercedes designs the sedan first and then tries to turn that design into a coupe. Sometimes it works well and sometimes it does not. You have to do a little more in my opinion than remove a set of doors and change the grille design to have a sucessful coupe.
