The new S-class will also be equipped with a lane-departure system which will monitor road markings and warn about unintended lane changes. Also set for introduction is an optional night vision system, which projects enhanced images of the road ahead onto a dashboard monitor. Merc?s system is based around a newly developed infra-red sensor that is claimed to identify objects quicker and deliver much sharper images than existing thermal systems.

The lawyers are gonna love this "feature!"

I wonder who it was that managed to smack EVERY SINGLE FVKING CAR DESIGNER IN THE FACE!!!!!!!!:|

 

[NFS4]

Ford Focus anyone?

Holy mother of god....

I WANT.

 

[Kishan]

why did they have to do that to such a beautiful car

The E, SLK, SL, C, ML were redesigned/facelifted very nicely, but this sucks.

Lawyer: Your honor, my client pleades innocent to crashing head-on into that car of girll scouts on their way to feed the homeless

Judge: But counsel, your client has admitted guilt and we've already decided on his sentence. In fact he is drinking a bottle of scotch as we speak *Points to defendant* PUT THAT DOWN SIR!

Lawyer: Your honor, my client's SLK disagrees

[poonsmjj]

the pic sorta make sit look retarded... hahaha

[CombatChuk]

Very sexy...

Bling, Bling

 

[Turkish]

That car is freaking sexy :Q

Topping the line-up will be a tweaked version of today?s 6.5-litre V12 from AMG. It is rumoured to produce up to 630bhp and a massive 810lb ft of torque.

Savings for this car begin from today.

 

[johnjbruin]

Also - those wheels look exactly like the new M45 5-spoke 19 inch ones

 

[PoPPeR]

how can you make so many judgements from one picture that's not even "real", so to speak?

 

[PowerMac4Ever]

I'd love to see some real pictures... hopefully MB doesn't screw this one up.

Honestly, that is my main dilemma with todays cars...they are utterly beautiful..mechanically....but as for the aesthetics...I'd have to have a lobotomay to even think of liking msot of what is coming out


That is one thing with which Jeremy( topgear) and I will never disagree.

The AM DB-9 is the most gorgeous car period.

830 lb-ft?

Mother of god that's a lot of power.

:Q

Think that engine will be available with AWD?

Viper GTS

Well - the current CL65 is already pushing 710lb-ft+ so its just another 100

If its available with AWD then my jaw will drop and fall to the floor :Q

 

[Ikonomi]

Well, I think that thing looks freaking fantastic. :Q

Big, sexy car.
