What he said. I think that car looks fantastic, but the rear wheel cover can go.

Horrible. Utterly horrible.

I suppose that rear wheel covering is there for aerodynamic reasons, but it destroys the elegance of the new E class. Actually, all these body kits from aftermarket tuners do that already.

Then again, someone going for such a car is probably more concerned about the power...

Is that a joke? Got to be. Brabus would not make that type of ugly rear, even for aerodynamics.

$800K for that thing??? On the upside, it does look like the rear wheel shield is detachable.
