Not sure if this is anywhere near close, but it does look good.

I like it. The current one is starting to look a little tired. Let's hope the price is right.

I think if they make that car or something that looks like it they have a winner.  I really like the styling on this thing.

Looks really good IMHO.

The headlights still suck. :angry: Has Bangle sabotaged MB?

It's alright, but I prefer the current car (which is now my 2nd or 3rd entry level sports sedan pick).

Nice freshening of the C.  I wonder if they'll keep selling the coupe.

Probably not, unless it sells well, which I think it does not.

It's hard to tell from this angle, but it looks like the roofline suffers from the same rear shape as the Pontiac G6. Both are far too flowing near the back.

It's really difficult to explain somehow. I'd prefer a steeper-raked rear roofline, and both the G6 and this C-Class don't have that.

So, you dont like this car's CLS-like roodline?

The CLS is a flowing design overall, from the front to back. The C-Class and G6 just have that design as part of the roofline.

It looks disturbingly like the G6, just with a Mercedes front end pasted on.

The mirrors, wheels, doorhandles, and basically the entire side looks very Mercedesish.

I don't know if anyone else will see a similarity, but the two cars are too close for my liking:

Theyre not THAT similar...

Rooflines are very close, though.

If they make it a coupe, and not a hatch, it should sell ok.  It should be priced below the CLK so there is no competition.

The second chop looks more like a smaller E-Class than a squashed-down CLS or a Pontiac G6.
