Cool. This generation of the S-Class coupe was a very stylish car when it came out and it still is now. Pillarless coupes almost always turn out looking very graceful and pleasing to the eye, and this is no exception. All trims of this car looked quite classy and not flashy in the least bit.
 
I really want to like it but I just can't. Has a healthy amount of power. But since its from the early 2000s, I just can't agree with Mercedes styling from that point in time. So a meh from me.
 
Fastest cannonball car to date. I do really like these. In fact, Merc as an overall brand has kinda been growing on me.
 
It certainly has a lot of presence, but the design is a bit lukewarm to me. There are some odd proportions and from the back the roof looks like underwear pulled over somebody's head, or a hammock perhaps. The picture of the interior has the worst color option.
