    Totally nicer than the E-Class 4 door.

    Looks good in white, but I still like new Audi designs best.

    I dont like that rear!

    The Audi is well in balance all around. So no chance for the Benz for catch up!


    Re: Watch out AUDI A5 - New E-Class coupe

    The car is looking, compared to the other CLKs before which I never liked those days, quite good.

    I only dont like the "rear hips design", which looks ok on the coupe, but as can be seen on an Autobild picture, this hips will do no good to the convertible.

    and here we are again, CLK convertible will be ugly as always before. Smiley

    I really hope, they will not mass up the new CLS design with those half strong looking hips.

    As a bimmer guy I would buy a A/S5 in a heartbeat but not this.  The only merc I can see myself in is the SL.

    the jacked up look is odd in a luxury car, ok for a 60's muscle car.

    Re: Watch out AUDI A5 - New E-Class coupe

    Audi A5 is running circles around the benz in terms of design. Makes the benz look like a hyundai. I honestly don't know who is going to buy the E-class coupe... Smiley

    I'm a AUDI guy myself and glad to see there many fans of AUDI here too Smiley.


    Re: Watch out AUDI A5 - New E-Class coupe

    Looks heavy... For me, BMW 3 Coupe with M package is winner in this class. Its more sporty oriented than this E class coupe or Audi A5. But if someone look for a more luxury coupe, then A5 or this E class coupe is better choice...


    Re: Watch out AUDI A5 - New E-Class coupe

    Does anyone like this new Mercedes coupe?

    IMO it is an odd assortment of strange lines, numerous folds and creases, with the odd curve thrown in for variety.

    It is so busy and incoherent,  that it looks as if the designer was hallucinating at the time.

    IMO it will appeal to older people (not only in terms of calendar age).

    The BMW 3 coupe is the most pleasant design in this class. The Audi is a no nonsense logical design that will prove timeless but IMO it needed a bit more flair.

    Anyway for me a Coupe is a waste of money. You either buy a performance four door (BMW or Audi) or you go for a true sports car.

    It's not where you're going, it's how you get there that counts

    Re: Watch out AUDI A5 - New E-Class coupe

    From TopGear:

    Mercedes has just revealed the new E-Class Coupe, a big swoopy two-door that will replace the CLK when it goes on sale this summer.

    The big news – apart from that name change, on which more in a tick – is the slipperiness. With a drag coefficient of just 0.24, The E-Class Coupe is the most aerodynamically efficient series-production car in the world, making it officially more slippery than a heavily buttered eel with a penchant for pickpocketing.  

     

    Apparently that makes the car more fuel efficient by 17% , and it sort of explains the wierd lines.

    Re: Watch out AUDI A5 - New E-Class coupe

    I like it.

    I admit it does look a bit boxy.

    I must say that interior doesn't look luxurious.

    And I really dont like old MB petrol engines that they decided to put into it...  still no turbo MB? Shame on you :) (500 engine is fine though...)

    All that considered... I guess I would take tiptronic S5. It just gives more of that muscle car feeling and has more embracing interior

    Re: Watch out AUDI A5 - New E-Class coupe

     

    I dont like the new Mercedes styles at all (C-/E-/CLK Class).

    The A5 is one of the most beautiful cars on the street. I always have to think that when I see one. Further on, the S5 seems to be a great package for a fair price!
