I respect your opinion, but I've never thought much of low, humpback-whale rooflines...especially on a sedan. Not only does it make the roof look like it went halfway through a crusher, but the peep-hole windows also cut down on visibility. The worst example is (arguably) the Chevy Camaro.

(even the roofline on my Lacrosse is a little swoopier than I'd like...but obviously not a deal-breaker).

They couldn't copy the new one obviously, it just got unveiled. But it is similar to the current mustang.

The new CLS is a GREAT looking car. Why they had it displayed in that dull grey color that blends in with the floor, walls, etc in the display is beyond stupid IMO. Make the display car pearl white, silver, red, lighter colors really highlight the body lines on a great looking car.

Darker color work better on boxy vehicles like trucks with a lot of chrome to contrast with.
