Benz has copied the 7er in this regard (although the whole design is a mutation of the 7er), and its interiors are a class apart in design and quality. What we are seeing here is a clone of the 7er on the inside and the outside in the F01 and F07. Sorry...BIG FAIL!!!!
No. While I would agree that the E65 had a great, innovative interior, the F01 interior (though more conservative) is also great, and of great quality. If the F10 interior is really like the F01 and F07 ones, it would be a huge leap from the E60, and also better than the E-class.
