There is a massive and posh brand-new VW facility here that just opened a little while ago, relocating from their former little steel building that dated from the 1960s. They have a lot more room to store inventory too. I wanted to look at the new Atlas Cross Sport. The regular Atlas never did much for me but these appeal to me a bit more. They had several in inventory but what caught my eye was one with a V6 in metallic red with a tan-and-black interior, very sharp. Seemed pricey to me though at $55K in worthless Canadian dollars. They also had a couple of new Golf R models on the front row, both black unfortunately.
Just next door was the Kia dealer run by the same group and the Seltos was in abundance. That is a really sharp looking little rig. They had one in a metallic green-gold that was a bit garish but sure caught the eye. There was one next to it in a dark metallic blue that I liked as well. Also saw my first Palisade up close and personal, too big for me but very nice.
My last stop was the Toyota dealer where they had exactly one new Corolla hatch. Nice enough inside but I hope they come in different trims than this one. Lots of Corolla sedans on the lot along with a huge fleet of various SUV/CUV models.

Not new, but in my hour of outside time yesterday, I must have seen 10 G-wagens, apparently that group is getting out.
Near twin to my car (but with fancypants upholstery)
The wagon is beautiful

The wagon appears to be stock/configurator photos so far, but I'll probably stop by and look at it when it arrives, just because it is so similar to mine.

It seems AMG to non-AMG for late model examples is about a 95:5 - I'd want the non-AMG.

They both have stupidly high depreciation floors, too. A nice 2002 G with 200K can fetch 25K.

I suspect the depreciation algorithm is using a higher rate based on the prior gen E-class facing faster depreciation due to being a discontinued model.

That interior had great potential if they made the media system run flat across that flat wide area instead of a pop up screen behind the speedometer and one protruding from the console. Could have been the best interior design ever.

Facelift E also has a rear light treatment that seems Asian brand-inspired to my eyes, kind of Infiniti or Hyunkia-ish. It also gets the same headlight style as the A-class. I prefer the pre-facelift.

Not a fan.

Speaking of prototypes, I spotted this on the road in Stuttgart in 2015 - current E-class:

The prototype in the decomposition yard said "Kia " to me.

I think MB is losing some design identity. What really irks me about the E facelift is that the E loses a unique headlight design, something it retained for decades.

Thanks for the fix

but, I agree that they needed a "momma bear" option. When we were shopping recently, I did look at Toyota. Wanted to like the RAV, but it was just a little bit too small. and the Highlander had some nice touches, but was definitely too big. So if they can slot in a 5 passenger with a bit more space and comfort, should be popular.
It is actually pretty good looking to me. and this factoid was interesting: Venza will differ from every other U.S.-maker crossover in that it will be available only as a hybrid and only with all-wheel drive.

She loved it, and her only complaint was poor visibility.
It was as reliable as a Timex never needing a thing.
