   I still think that the nose is sticking out like a pig, and pigs are not attractive to me…..but the side and rear design is brilliant

   I agree - to a point. However, the rear in profile is very Lexus LS-ish. I wonder if the kidney grille would look any better if it were chromed out a la CS Concept.

   I’m not really feeling the exhausts, but wow this is amazing. I love the 7-series, but still feel the Benz S-Class is a lot better.

   I think they could have done a much better job with the 7 series. There is alot of critisism about the Bangle designs but the truth is that Adrian van Hooydonk is to blame for this design and for the dissapointing 3 series sedan. What is it with this guy? The new 7 series rear looks like a Lexus and Hyundai and the rear of the 3 series sedan looks like a Nissan Almera! Why doesn’t he work for them then?Oh! I forgot to mention the PAS concept which is not original at ALL!Renault came out with this design first with their Laguna YEARS AGO!

   I will have to agree with CARversation.com, that for that specific target market group the S-Class is overall a better performer.

   the 7 Series does nothing for me, neither does the 5 Series… in terms of look. I”m sure they are nice cars to drive, etc…
   but from the look standpoint, i’d rather want a Mercedes S with nice rims than a 7 series.
