MB Tex is very uncomfortable. MB leather is much better, although not as soft as the leather found in Lexus models.

The leather found in the AMG models (a step up from regular MB leather) is very nice.

 

I like it in white.

 

interesting how they were able to add the clock back in the speedo area, just like the old days

 

They have the clock just like that in the current E class.

 

Go back to your doctor you are obviously sick in some way if you dislike this interior!!

j.k
i love this interio but what you just said is a bit to harsh

btw those are massagin seats most likely

 

you have the latest version of command? my command system in my ml gets me right to the building its just a pita to type in while driving i hate that ****

 

Wow looks nearly as good as current C-class and S-class.

I think the days are over for the E-class being the top selling model in the line-up regardless.

 

I have massaging seats in my A8, and I don't have the ugly switches on the top side of the seat. I bet it would feel really good having those plastic switches "massaged" into my leg.

 

Mercedes-Benz unveils AMG sports pack for new E-Class Sedan

Having already unveiled its all-new E-Class Sedan at last week’s Detroit Auto Show, Mercedes Benz released today new images of the svelte saloon wrapped in the carmaker’s new AMG styling package. The package includes a number features not available individually and gives us a preview of what to expect for the upcoming high-performance AMG model.

The new styling pack consists of an AMG front apron with large cooling air intakes, new side skirts and a custom rear bumper. The exhaust tailpipes are also unique, feature a twin, rectangular design and finished in polished stainless steel.

Other details include the completely newly designed 18in AMG light-alloy wheels, which are painted in sterling silver with a high-sheen finish and are shod with 245mm tires. Wider 265mm tires are available for the rear wheels. Perforated brake discs and silver-painted calipers bearing the Mercedes Benz logo are also fitted, as well as a suspension lowering kit that drops the car 15mm.

Inside, the AMG package includes new sport bucket seats finished in a special microfiber man-made leather. This same material is used for the door armrests and part of the center console. Other features include AMG floor mats, a pedal cluster in brushed stainless steel with rubber studs, black roof lining and Nappa trim for the gear-shifter. The AMG sports package also includes a manual "M" transmission mode designed for the automatic gearbox.

The actual AMG model, bearing the potent ‘E63’ badge, is due to be released later in the year. This car will feature a 525hp version of the hand-built 6.2L AMG V8 engine.

 

I hope this E class has a real V6. The current is pretty weak.

 

to me it looks really cheap.... it doesnt looks like a luxury car at all.

 

When the 210 came out, I really liked it. When the 211 was released, I thought MB did a great job of making it better. The 211 E55s are so sleek while the e63 was just that much more aggressive looking.

The 212? I've seen a few shots that made me go hmmm ... but other than that, it will take some getting used to (kind of like the 3GS for me). I was hoping the AMG version would really make me get off the fence. Although it is a step above the standard version, I am still reserving judgment.

 

i definately like the looks of it. much more agressive than the dainty looking ovals for headlights they have now.

 

I love it, used to hate the rear, but now I dont

 

Still just kinda eh to me. It's not ugly but it's not great looking either and I would really have a hard time choosing this car over the drop-dead gorgeous Jaguar XF.
