Interiors looks great! Performance is great! Exterior, not great. The back end looks like a Volkswagen. Not a fan.

Agreed. It's not ugly, but in terms of looks I'd still rather have something like the Jaguar F-TYPE. Performance wise it's not bad either, specs up to 550HP V8, AWD with 0-60 time of 3.9 seconds (F-TYPE R). Probably similar price at ~$104,000, though the article doesn't have the exact price of the new C-63 coupe.

Yep, I'd take a Jaguar all day long over this Merc.
 
I think it's ugly, even Hyundais look better than that nowadays. It should be the other way around Mercedes, not you wanting to look like a Korean car.

F-Type.

Well, that mostly because hyundai has spent so long trying to copy their styling cues.

Right, but then Mercedes should keep theirs instead of blending it back.

For instance, the last generation E class looks decidedly more visually appealing than the latest one.
 
i don't think i could justify a v8 (given it'd waste most of its time barely being used).

but the 2017 C300 coupe might be my next car (looks almost the same, costs way less , its still more than fast enough for even very illegal driving). just love the design language.

what i don't get is the accord comparisons. yes it has that one upward angled window line near the end of the green house, but other than that they look just as alike as any other 2 coupes.

i think it looks great (the ipad dash thing, im pretty indifferent to, i guess i have that little lcd sticking right up on my dash for idrive, so i'm used to that LCD sticking out look now. even mazda copied it on the mazda 3 / mx-5)
