Looking better in that pic (at normal ride height and with expected tire/wheel sizing). I'm still a bit unsure about the character lines on the side, but the basic shape looks hot.

I know it looks sexy but it is just an e-class with one less seat.

The new 2012 Mercedes-Benz CLS is on its way. The vehicle was spied in Dubai while performing some heat tests.

The next-generation Mercedes-Benz CLS is expected to take a bow at the Paris Motor Show later this year. So stay tuned for more information on the vehicle.
Dubai baby!

The taillights look odd going all across the trunk...

I think its just a reflector tape of sorts. Are THEY still passing this off as a coupe?

I'm not feeling the front as of yet.

The rest of the car looks great. More muscular and sporty-looking than the outgoing model, yet with a graceful elegance we've come to expect from a a CLS successor model.

The interior looks very promising, both from a material and design point of view.
