This probably means the current S class will be the best looking S class ever for quite a while yet. Too bad the quality isn't there any more.

I'm with Sexy. Current S-class is the best looking big sedan possibly ever.
As for styling, seems the Maybach does provide its styling cues. It seems Bangle gets to see his BUTT on damn near ever new car made.

I agree its too early to tell. How many times have we seen camo'd or spy photos, hated them, just to love them when the final product came out. BTW the S-class has always been a design of beauty for the time period in which it was released(starting from the beginning). Even the boxy S-class('92-'99) looked great at the time it was released(and didn't get old until the late '90's, then we had the beautiful W220) so Im sure MB wont let the world down with the latest S class.

Is that a man or a woman in the photo?

I'm guessing ...

geez, it really could go either way.

Neat slippers, Pat!

If it's a dude, he needs a haircut - immediately.

You know I noticed the same thing, I'd say it is some dude.

I don't think Lexus will encounter any difficulties siphoning more MB loyalists

I thought the previous BMW 7 series looks better than the previous S Class, which is boxy , slab-sided & not too graceful in it's lines.
