i think merc is going to be in a constant battle with Chevy to see who can make their badges the biggest on the grille..

The tail lights sure do look funky. In fact, the whole back end is messed up.

C-Class is alright, it's for people who want the big Mercedes emblem but aren't really that baller.

The only one worth giving a damn about was the C32 AMG, and that didn't even come in manual.

The huge emblem is too much of an ego inflator for me

Even the Bangle-ized 3-series is better looking.

Before the move/lock.

Didn't they release C pictures a while ago?

Merc Owner to self " :( my man parts are too small...oh, look at my giant grill emblem, I feel better now :)"

Some of the lines look like some late 90's jags.

I didn't know they took design cues straight from the Acura RL.... horrible remake.

For what it is, I think it's a fine looking car. Could have been a lot more mundane and mediocre, but they took some risks.

the front end reminds me of a evo, with that aggresive look to it.

The essentially brought the emblem from a ML and put it in this one...

But other than that, I like it.

Horrid badge with a car riding on it. Rediculous.

I think the front of that car is amazing looking, and i like the wheels but the back is awkward. THat is the AMG version correct? If not i wonder if the amg is going to be even more aggressive, i like the wheels.

It kinda works up to the c-pillar, then it goes all Hyundai.

And what's with that badge?

This car screams "European pedestrian crash requirements ****ed me" with the badge in the grill and the really vertical nose. Back in the day, only the top end Mercedes had the badge in the grill (CL, SL, etc. and eventually coupes/convertibles/suvs for some reason). I think we'll see the badge in the grill on the next S and E class due to hood ornaments being not-so-pedestrian friendly.

The cars will be available in "Luxury" or "Sport" editions. The "Luxury" editions have the traditional grille with the hood ornament, and the "Sport" editions have the large badge in the grille.

Touche. My point still stands by the very vertical nose. There is something that looks terribly wrong about this car.
