This car does not look appealing to me at all. The older CLK black series was much better executed IMO; it was way more elegant.

The rear fender flares on the new C BS is a joke; they look miniscule and out of place compared to the front flares. It also appears that the front flares goes up a little higher than the rear flares, making the back wheels look smaller. Covering up the bottom half of the car, you have an accord coupe from the window line and up.

I went and test drove a C63 after driving an ISF, let me tell you how much better the MB sounds....


I would be averaging 7mpg and 2 speeding tickets per day because I would have it wide open everywhere I went.

Nice.

A bit overdone, but then again, it's AMG.

Depends on your preference. The C63 AMG sound personally gets tiresome quickly for me. It's a very loud, obnoxious sound, especially with that exhaust. The ISF has a nice angry sound too, but it's not as loud as the C63. Slightly more refined you could say.

I agree, this one winds up looking pretty cheesy. The CLK exterior was much better in execution.
