Our spies have caught a Mercedes E-Class Cabrio virtually undisguised.
While only a few pieces of camouflage hide the headlights and emblems, we've already seen these design elements on the E-Class Coupe. Nearly identical to the aforementioned model, the Cabrio features a canvas roof and a unique pop-up wind blocker (the black section at top of the windshield) that reduces air turbulence when the roof is down.
Like the coupe, engine options are expected to include a 215 kW (292 hp) 3.5-liter V6 and a 5.5-liter V8 with 285 kW (388 hp). Since Mercedes has nixed the AMG version of the E-Class Coupe, the Cabrio won't receive the fire breathing 6.3-liter (6208cc) V8 engine with 386 kW (525 hp) and 630 Nm (465 lb-ft) of torque.
Look for the E-Class Cabrio to debut at the North American International Auto Show or the Geneva Motor Show.

Design a cabiolet from the ground up, not the other way around!
Also the rear fender flares do nothing for this car
and Im glad it's a softtop. Hardtop convertibles with more than 2 seats look... goofy and akward (Infiniti not included). like the 3 series... and the Lexus IS... and the Chrysler and... well, u get my point.
