    Does anyone else hate the new rear lights?

    I liked the predecessor and I like this one. I particularly like the rear lights on this one. It's like a baby S Class.

    No AWD. 476hp base, 510hp S model. Read the article and the preview links haha.

    And yes, I'm not a fan of the new tails in the day, but they look great at night. I think a black car with tinted tails would really fix the problem. The contrast between the tails and the trunk with no lights is a bit awkward.

    The wagon wraps the lights around the trunk, looks 100x better on lighter colored cars.

    Modern lights all look great at night these days. I think its the increased use of LED's etc. No more big bulbs.

    One thing the S4 has going for it is great lights!

    I prefer a slight wrap-around to the tailights as well.

    There is no wagon here.

    The wagon is the one we shot in Paris.

    it really is a shame that they don't bring it over.

    I think its nice overall. I like the taillights, whats wrong with em? front end is meh. AMGs have the worst overall depreciation of any car.

    While it's true over the entire range of the brand, it's mostly from the $200k+ V12 AMG's that bring that average down.

    For the normal AMG's, it depreciates at the same rate as Audi S/RS and BMW M.

    I do like it but keep thinking that I like the current generation more. Something about those curvy angles and lines on the newer vehicles, it always takes me longer to get used to them.

    There is nothing in the link that mentions anything about drivetrain or engine specs. Just a quick blog that gives me nothing about the specs of the vehicle?

    Am I missing something?

    Last C63 rear so much better...now it just looks buggy, round, soft. Could just be a bad angle on that pic, but I wouldn't even give them a second look. Not like how I break my neck to see this pretty set of quad pipes:

    What is up with the iPad on the dash - why can't some auto manufacturers better integrate these displays?

    Maybe people just like that look of a panel display plopped on top of their vehicle's dash - comments?

    The C class center console looks a little funny, what's that big door for under the HVAC controls?

    Cigarette lighter, usb input, sunglasses?
