Had to give it a Meh, personally. There is a lot about it that's cool, but it's all experienced in any seat but the driver's.
 
I find having a million internal LED's a bit tacky, I give it a meh. The rims on some of the models in the additional pictures tab also have uglier rims than the main picture in the OP, so there's that too.
 
Ultimate cruising luxury designed for those with their own chauffeur. Too despotic to be Sub Zero but a good solid Cool, surely?
 
I once said the standard S-Class was the best luxury car below a Rolls-Royce. This is way above a normal S-Class. This is one car I'd be more than happy to be chauffeured in.

Cool.
 
Like buses, post office vans and refuse trucks the only people who ever drive these are paid to do so. SU.
 
It's amusing that they gave it the interior gimmicks that people were throwing into Civics fifteen years ago

Hesu-frickin-Xst...

You could excuse such exuberance on a Mazda. Or even a Volvo (but only if your interior design is as clean as Volvo's)

This looks like F-Zero meets Buick on the set of an 80's sci-fi porn parody.

Can't think of a single sane buyer who can look at this interior, then take a gander at a Bentley or a Rolls Royce Ghost, and pick this over them. This is the opposite of restrained luxury. This is absolutely tacky.

And let's not overlook the fact that the Hoi Polloi can see a Rolls or a Bentley coming from a mile away, but couldn't tell this from a Hee-yun-day from twenty paces.

Shouty interior, dangerously anonymous exterior... did they do a focus group asking rich clients what they didn't want in their car by mistake?

So seriously uncool it hurts.
