Possible 2010 E500 Coupe? Spotted on the Autobahn

Had a run in with what I am 90% sure was a camouflaged 2010 E500. (judging by the spy pics I have seen online.) The front was heavily camouflaged to include the Mercedes emblem but I could see the LED fogs/DRL's on the lower corners shining through. I only got these shots of the rear due to traffic. When we reached the no speed limit section we both went for it with him starting in front of me (I'm stock except for intake.) and honestly I did not really feel underpowered against the Merc. He eventually outran me though due to my 130mph speed rating on my winter tires. Damn it!

After recovering from my brain fart I realize it is the wrong section. My bad.

...Also, no other pics sorry was too busy checking it out in my rear view mirror when he was behind me to remember to take pics at that moment.

Tight stance and tons of tumblehome. The way the sheet metal is pressed is starting to look very similar to BMW's future designs.
