Great pictures there!

What where your impressions of the S8?

YoUhimhER · 10-31-2005, 07:59 PM

let me start with my impression of the s-class,

before i saw it in person, i have to admit i think it looks rather odd with those wheel arches, the more i look at the pictures, the more i dislike it, so i thought may be that's it, the new s-class is just a disappointment for me. but then everything changed after i saw it in person, it has the WOW factor when viewed in person. the over stance of the car is just so muscular with those wheel arches, the front and back are perfect too IMO. very authoritative looking i have to say.

as for the s8, it looked better in person, but it lacked the wow factor of the new s-class, becuz it is not a new design afterall. tho it does look more aggressive in person than in pictures. very handsome and solid looking. overall the design is very well balanced between aggressiveness and elegance. one of the most desirable sedan IMO.

on the otherhand, the lexus LS concept was disappointing, it looked good from pictures but rather boring in person, becuz it looks exactly like an oversized ES. the design is not ugly, just plain, it doesnt have the character that the germans have, if u know what im talkin about.

Exactly what im saying.... LS looks like an ES, and the S8 needs more flare.... looks to bland and A8 like.

Those wheel arches don't look as bad as they do when it's a dark color... it kind of camouflages it. I still don't like the front bumper and those foglights. ANy pictures of AMG versions to compare it with?
