Seems like both cars downgraded in terms of headlights. Otherwise everything else looks good. I'd take the E63 interior with the M5 steering wheel lol

M5 looks way better imho. Why did the Merc not bump their HP to compete with the M5 Comp or the new M5 cs coming soon?

Both of the sedans look pretty good, although I prefer the pre-refresh of both, however, there is a body style available on the E63S that is superior to both cars...

Mercedes can't really get their facelifts right, they always mess it up. Previous model year looked better.
All went downhill after this one, though:

I don't know why but to my eyes most mercedes just look like a designing mess. The new E63 looks like a downgrade with the soften lines.
I wasn't even a fan of the LCI M5 but it looks way better than the Merc.

Do the companies really compete against each other anymore? I think BMW vs. Porsche is the better conversation. Bimmer heads talk about going to Porsche, not Mercedes. BMW is for driving enthusiasts whereas Mercedes is about luxury - hence their interior attention to detail. On the road it's almost always an older customer in the Merc, a diverse demographic in BMWs and way more (true) Ms than AMGs.

I didn't go from a 540i to CLS because of the luxury, and honestly the 5er was more "luxurious" at least in materials and build quality.
