The new S-Class in my opinion is the best looking S ever

You know, this is weird but I’m gonna say new on all of them. Except the SLS AMG. And i’ll say the Maserati made the most improvement, even tho it has the least change.

Old in all of them but the Mustang.

The old Quattro looks incredible, the new one looks Korean

The old S-Class was classy and nice, the new one looks tacky and melty

The new Charger looks a bit odd.

New Mustang is better.

New AMG looks melty and odd.

While it may not look like it, the Maserati went through a long list of changes, most changes just happen to be behind the body panels themselves.

Love the new S class and I think Mercedes made it quite difficult for BMW and Audi to come out on top in this segment. They’re going to have try real hard to beat the new S-class.

Maser: New. the subtle changes to the fenders really do it for me. new headlights are “trendy”, but they do flatter the front-end shape.

megaMerc: torn, like both for different reasons... but ultimately i think new wins, it looks like a modern vehicle.

Charger: same problem as the S-class, but the new one looks more “timely”

‘stang: new. no question. the new ‘stang is better in every way from every angle and in every proportion. it’s gone from being an “attractive, if retro design” to “hot damn that’s pretty!”

miniMerc(withbigpower): Old. the SLS is classic angry-power-german-awesome. it looks special, mean, and expensive. the new one looks like it was designed in a wind-tunnel with the same software everyone else used.

All new except Mas. It’s all about the headlights on that one.

I’d say new all around. In the Mustangs case I think the 11 and 12 was better looking than even this generation.

The two Maseratis look absolutely identical....

Old Mercedes

Old Charger

New Mustang

and I’d stick my nuts in a blender full of piranhas and hydrochloric acid for either the SLS or AMG GT....

My grand dad just purchased an S-Class, and my god it’s kinda like the TARDIS- bigger on the inside than the outside. I won’t even go into further detail about that interior because it is just mind-bogglingly appointed

The new Maserati only has a slightly different design but it is longer, wider and taller. Also has completely different powertrain and interior.

You’re comparing an ultra-rare Black Series SLS to the AMG GT.

It’s like comparing a ‘14 GT500 to a base V6 2015 ‘Stang. I still think the new Mercedes is more elegant regardless.

New everything but the charger.

I like the new headlights on the charger, but the old grill was just so good. Why would they drop such an amazing grill?

I think only the SRT models look good with the new front end. The rest seem kinda weird looking.

This is the AMG Black. Not sure if that’s a fair comparison.

4porte - old

Charger - old

Mustang - new

SLS and AMG GT are not really the in the same class - tie
