the 06 headlights are way better, i dont like the cls looking curve running down the sides, a floor shifter would be nice. i would have liked an 06 looking cl with the newer engine and transmission

#21: with Mercedes’ current lack of quality, I’ll have to agree with you. Their quality has really gone down the drain in this new century.

Anybody who buys a Mercedes should be embarrassed that they wasted their money when they could have bought a superior Cadillac instead.

Talk about stupidity Sheesh

Simply gorgeous! The black color makes this car look sinister, sexy……

Can’t wait for it to show up in showrooms!

by the durango reference I was referring to the sculpting on the front feenders….although I suppose it could also be compared to the latest Nissan Concept GT-R.

and yes, my entire post was DRIPPING with sarcasm, as a shot on VDub.

The front just looks so uninspiring. The SL convertible (with top up) looks way better.

I hope Mike was being sarcastic because he’s a very sad bastard indeed if he thinks anyhting is as badly proportioned as a Durango/Aspen. Oh wait I just saw a Caliber

i agree w/ mike that the front headlights are sction tc-esque, but wouldnt you also agree they resemble a vw phaeton’s as well? just not quite as long.

it doesnt really bother me though because the car overall is incredible looking

Gimme a break, Mike. You could look at damn near ANY car on the road and say parts of it look like other cars.

ohh… and the headlight like a Tc…and front fenders like a Durango…and a dual exhaust like I saw on a 1986 Elantra last night…and 3 chrome strips on the front like a fusion…and a steering wheel like a mercedes I once saw a picture of…

At the rate BMW and Mercedes are going by losing the floor mounted shifter I can only surmise that bench seats are next.

It might be paddle shift

Is this thing a column mounted shifter? I gues it doesn’t really matter since its an auto, but still definatly un-sporty.

Yes, this is one hot coupe. I agree that the floormounted shifter should be in it.
