      I totally agree. I´m so tired of seeing the amg/avantgarde front. That´s why i bought my w205 with the "classic" star. Looks so much more classy.
      Btw: it´s called "exclusive line" now, not "elegance" anymore.

    I agree, Elegance line looks so much better on C Class. While I would have preferred to keep all the vent covers in the Elegance style, you did a great job overall; I had no idea so many components are actually attached to that front end.The hood ornament is just icing. I remember it being like a gun sight from behind the wheel in my old 400E, and I loved it. The last car I had with the ornament was a 97 E420, although it seemed a bit less prominent from the drivers seat. But regardless, I started driving ML/GLE's a while back and they were never meant to have the stand up star.

  • @57RollsRoycePhantom
    @57RollsRoycePhantom 4 года назад +9

    Here in the USA the standing star hood ornament is respected and so unique. MB are the only ones besides rolls Royce that still use them. Gives a feeling of class and wealth. Can’t believe MB thinks the big star is better and has decided to eliminate the standing star. It doesn’t feel right without seeing it on the car. After all it’s always there to remind you your in a MB and guide the way to automotive superiority.

    I remember as little kid my great uncle(grandmother's brother) had a 1985 slate blue Mercedes S-Class. Remember at the family reunion here in the States. Seeing the Mercedes, Cadillacs, Lincolns and Buicks with hood ornaments were a sign of prestige. Nowadays a lot of luxury cars have gotten away with the hood ornaments. But to me it makes the car look classy

I’ve put the whole thing down to experience and just accepted the car as it is 😂
