Pros
  • Torquey yet robust M157 in the E63 AMG
  • Arguably improved build quality
  • Better exterior styling than the pre-facelift
  • Good M278 engine
  • Good 0.27 drag coefficient
  • The same good styling (for a hunchback sedan)
  • Sweet 6.2L V8
  • No AWD nonsense
Cons
  • AMG went 4MATIC
  • MacPherson front suspension
  • Markedly uglier than the C219 CLS
  • AWD nonsense
  • Small diesel nonsense
  • MacPherson strut front suspension
  • Less special than the original as more hunchbacks come on the market
