glad it's out

yup, i like it more than the sedan facelift as well. but i still prefer the current headlights

hahaa, i think they will just use the current c63 engine

 

the door, rear quarter glass, and side character line look similar to the accord.
but that's it.

from 100 ft away, you won't confuse the 2

 

I really like the CL-class facelift, improve the appearance of the front end a lot, but I think they make the new C-class coupe look too much like the CL ...

 

you like the new headlights? hehe, i guess that's why i still haven't warmed up to the new sl headlights

you think it looks too much like the cl? umm, never felt that way. the cl feels more bulky. and i guess with the huge size difference people can distinguish them more in person

 

I like the CL facelift mainly because the Tyra Banks forehead look of the front end is gone, and I don't really mind the new headlights either

The CL is of course more bulky but I think it's much harder to tell them apart at a distant , when it is mostly the general shape and the grill that you can see clearly , much like the previous gen. S and C class look too much alike . your wife said it's difficult to tell them apart unless they are near right?

 

hahaa, she was way off, she couldn't even distinguish either of those from the e class!

though training has changed all that since

 

Worthless! The whole C class is for posers who want their friends to think they have a Mercedes while paying Toyota prices. In Europe, the C class is a taxi, and not a very good one at that. Here, it is a POS that detracts from the Mercedes name. My E class had a lower resale because of the C class and ended my desire to ever have a Mercedes.

not feeling it, rear end looks like its too much space? so i think, nahhhh chiiiiillllll

 

This car is going to sell so much its not even funny. Amazing how this class has grown in ten years.
It was just the 3 series and Acura CL. Acura CL flopped. 3 series dominated. G35 coupe came and sold well. Audi A5/S5 came. CTS coupe is here.

Lexus where is the IS coupe?

 

The sad part is that with the current, clearly coupe inspired sedan design, an IS coupe could have been the best looking one in the class.

 

yeah, and they messed that one up good!

 

pretty silly comment imho. you think c class is what drags down the resale on mb? check reliability and maintenance instead. similar you can (and should) say 3 and IS are poser cars too

 

Yawn, the E-Class and some lower S-Classes are used as taxis as well.

 

Well, it seems the Europeans(& probably most Asians) don't mind, but every time I visit Hong Kong, I always see at least half a dozen black S-class sedans waiting outside the airport terminal, waiting to be hired as airport limos, which is really just a higher priced taxi, and my desire for the S-class as a "prestige" car fall a couple of notches immediately, even though they are very nice cars ......
But rich people in Hong Kong still buy them in bunches, you see S-class sedans EVERYWHERE there, the last time I heard, which is a few years ago, they have 49% of the market in it's class.

I was in London last August, and asked the front desk @ my hotel to call a cab(i.e. any cab, without specifying) for us, and when it came, it was a BMW 7-series, I was pleasantly surprised of course

 

hasha true. but when you go to high end hotels there, they also use s class as vip cars
