    Agreed. Design perfection if you like heavy looking women too. Such a generous amount of visual weight, nothing light and tight about this babe, slap that big booty!

    What's his opinion of the original Jaguar XK-E? Dated?

    Widely considered one of the most beautiful designs ever.

    There must be a lot of most beautiful designs ever but I've got to agree with you. The Series 1 Coupe has to rank up there with the Talbot-Lago T150-C SS, the Corvette Split-Window Coupe, the Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 Stradale and the Dino 246 GT Coupe. Too many more to list but that's my top 5.

    Well...

    actually... he hates that car and think its the ugliest car ever made. Not even kidding. Only person whom I have ever met who thinks the car is hideous. Now.... he and I typically agree on style of damn near everything... but not these two...

    Funny to one of the other commenters... he has a 63 split and loves it.

    I like the back ends... I think they are elegant vs the chopped off tails... I think they stole a little aston on those rear decklids...

    Also I am not a Benz guy AT ALL... but I really like those new grills... SO SPARKLY... LOL I think they are beautiful!

    The last gen Mercedes coupe had Accord coupe written all over it, this one is less but definitely in the side glass.

    I'd really like to see the actual car to appreciate/understand the concept.

    In the picture of the Furai, (top picture), the guy standing by the rear wheel is the designer, Bernard Lee, who moved to Tesla soon after doing this car.
    The bald guy in the second picture is Truman Pollard. I worked with both of them at Honda, many years ago.
