Wide body looks great. The wheel/tire fitment is absolutely perfect! I have found a new desktop background….

P.S. Forgot to say, Barabus’ SV12 S/SL/E/CL/CLS produce 730 hp, and 812 lb-ft of torgue.

1024 Nm == 756 lb-ft

That’s slighlty more torque than the 65 AMG engine in the S65, SL65, and the soon to come CL65. They have 1000 Nm, which equals 738 lb-ft, and that’s how you can remember the conversion factor.

what disturbs me most about this car is how fat it initially looked to me in comparison to the old cl. the same thing happened with cadillac’s new escalade. the old one look kind of lean, angular, and even aggressive. whereas the new cadillac escalade looked really fat. i guess they’re both menacing in their own way, but now i see mercedes following this same fatter is better mentality.

i guess if the old cl-class was boba fett, then this new one is jabba the hutt. i don’t know if i’ll ever really love the way it looks, but i might have to respect it.

Looks like cheap add on spoiler pieces that don’t integrate well with the bumper. Makes a very expensive car looks like a Civic.
