that's what made the fabulous LS so successful as well, and hopefully the new LS will be that way, with a modern platform and features.

Very nice. I'm also a sucker for black on luxury sedans. The only exception would be metallic white with black wheels because black paint w/ black wheels doesn't sit well with me.
I must ask, what material is the center of the steering wheel made of? Doesn't appear to be leather.

Whatever tire dressing they used for detailing is horrible. The rims are actually grayish in color so it should hide dirt fairly well

i cant find cheap plastic anywhere except the rear vent cover on the center armrest. Oh, Ill edit this post to include the steering column housing, the rear view mirror, and a little bit of the sunroof/sunglass holder area.

Personally, if there is a good case for the 4 cyl, then I couldn't care less that my car has the same cylinder count as a civic. The only downside here is the sound and vibration and I think they have done a good enough job to suppress those issues. It depends on each person's definition of prestige. I enjoy driving home after a day's work with my heated, massaging seat, with my car half driving for me. That is all I care about.
As for interior appointments, I think the E is on par with the S, and outshines the S in many areas, such as the new safety features and even the dual screens being one sheet of glass instead of separated units in the S. However, I don't know why MBUSA did not include a stitched dash on the sport models. That is the only missing component
