Even though we already know how the 2015 Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe (C217) looks in official photos, how each of its headlights may feature 47 Swarovski crystals and how the model looks like in real life, it is now time to see it how it measures up against its sedan brother at this year's Geneva Motor Show.
Even though the auto show will open for the public on March 6 and the press isn't allowed to enter the premisses until tomorrow, we managed to get two photos from the Mercedes-Benz stand.

As expected, the world premiere of the S-Class Coupe C217 is the main course, with the S 600 V222 and S 65 AMG V222 celebrating their European premiere alongside.

Sporting the AMG bodykit and a pure white paint, the S-Class Coupe looks pretty tiny compared with its sedan brother, but appearances are slightly misleading.

We say this because the model is only slightly shorter and lower than the majestic Sonder Klasse, but its design would make you think that the difference in dimensions is much greater.

Nevertheless, we think it looks as sexy as in all the other images and footage we have encountered until now, even though white is probably not the best color for it from our point of view.

As most of you know, the Geneva Motor Show will see the introduction of the S 500 Coupe in both rear-wheel drive and 4Matic all-wheel drive guise, with the more powerful engines to arrive this Fall.

Expect more photos and details about the model in the upcoming hours, as Mercedes-Benz prepares to hots a special premiere night right before the beginning of the auto show.
