Re: Offical: 07' R63 AMG debuts in Chicago

Luwalira,

What I like about the styling is that unlike some current MB designs (CLK in particular) the rear wheel wells are proportionate with the front wheel wells. And the way the lower window frame curves to accentuate the rear haunches. Some of MBs designs put too much visual emphasis on the front fenders and not enough on the rear. They are like guys at the gym with upper bodies too big for their legs. I happen to be a leg guy myself.
