Exterior

The E-Class was redesigned for 2010, and I'm not a huge fan of the new look. It trades the rounded edges and quad headlights I liked from the previous model for a more angular, sharper look. It blends in with the crowd so well that I think if you took off the Mercedes-Benz badges, you'd have a hard time telling exactly what brand of car it was. That wasn't the case with the previous version of the E-Class — it practically screamed "Mercedes-Benz."

That's not to say it's an ugly car now — it's not — it's just traded its identity. Don't believe me? Check out this comparison of the 2009 and 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class here.
