This is the Maybach replacement. I can see it being priced very, very high.

Looks heavy to me, and better in a darker color. Exhaust tips too geometrical for the overall smooth lines. Half the general public don't recognize AMG's unless there side by side. I see a lot of new mercs in my area which makes this car less attractive to me (are they giving them away?). Mentally I feel (and look ) too spry to drive this car. Tho she is a brute, I'm out! Just my 2 cents

2.) Half the general public don't recognize the difference between an M Sport and a Sport or Luxury Line. You think an M car stands out? Newsflash! It doesn't. 3.)Mercedes and BMW want their 3 and C to sell. Hell, a bare bones 320i can be had for $300/month. |

2. Wasn't comparing this car to anything but it's predecessors; no less a Maybach 3. I guess my sarcasm went right over your head with my "are they giving them away" comment.

They have an exhaust note for the car on the AMG website, and it sounds fantastic.

I agree with the comments about that crease that slopped downward. The only problem is, if it sloped up, it would be parallel to the lower crease and that would look very bad and possibly draw the eyes forward which not what you want to do in a rwd (generally) car.
But I think they could've dealt with that by adding a third crease that protruded out more which bisected the upper crease with a similar angle. This would've made the car look more 'rear wheel drive' which is what you want. And the interior looks great other than what looks like a giant ass infotainment system. |

I thought the same: Who took a 6 Series and put a Mercedes badge? The front is especially similar to a 6 Series.

I'm bored with black too. It's my favorite color on cars, but they hardest too pull-off because it's proclivity to cover lines and other design subtleties. Looks good/beefy in black here.... Almost looks Bentley GT-ish.... |

I'm not liking the now ubiquitous MB character lines down the sides. They are on every new Benz and they make the cars look front heavy to me. The lines should open up going towards the back rather than pinching in. Just my opinion though. I love the taillights on this thing!
