I like this concept quite a lot.
It's a modern take on the HPE. If only Lancia was making such cars...
Lack of charisma can be fatal.
Visca Catalunya!
Amongst the reasons of the failure of the Thesis are the fact that they didn't promote it at all. In fact Mercedes-Benz considered it one of closest rivals to the E-class back in the day.
Anyway this is quite different from a Thesis. More like a modern take on the Beta HPE.

but the Thesis fit Lancia's tradition as much as the HPE concept, and in Italy it has been highly advertised, but no one really wanted it for the a very simple fact: it's not one of the German 3.
I remember those comperisons between the Thesis and the E-Klasse, or even the 5 Series...old memories

Yep, the Thesis is possibly the last of a line, a true Lancia.
And while it may have been advertised in Italy, it wasn't here (and I guess in most of Europe either). Anyway, not being german obviously wasn't going to help, but there were many other reasons aside from this one, because even compared to its predecessors the Thesis was a complete failure.

I think the mercedes benz concept fascination is a great new think outside of the box for a german car marker after all we are only talking about a concept .the swift lines on either side of the car gives the car striking looks as if it is going asome immese speed .it has the grille of the the new e class saloon that is coming in 2009 .
I think this looks much better than the current gen. More classy less chintzy and whatnot.
That being said, we know it's a Merc, no need for that awful tristar on the grill.
"Kimi, can you improve on your [race] finish?"
"No. My Finnish is fine; I am from Finland. Do you have any water?"
not compared to the K, that was a compete fail, from every point of view (but at least it was relatively cheap to buy).
that car completely ruined Lancia's reputation with big sedans after the excellent car the Thema was. the Thesis suffered a lot of all the disasters the K created with its embarrassing reliability, low quality and high fuel consumption.
buying a Thesis now (better last year tbh) can be great deal, except if you are planning to sell the car before of say 10 years.

Lovely concept car n all, but not so sure about the "Mercedes Benz builds the world's most desirable coupes" bit...
