February 13, 200719 yr I don't like much of the current MB line-up, but that does look pretty good. Too bad half the pics have the Lexus logo in the background.
February 14, 200719 yr How about that, Mercedes? A TWO-door coupe... Not a fan of the vertical doorline, but great otherwise.
February 14, 200719 yr I don't find this attractive at all. It can't decide if it wants to be sleek or muscular, knife-edged or curvaceous. I'm sure the powertrain makes up for a lot of sins, though.
February 14, 200719 yr Author It is truly awesome in person. I didn't like it much in the original press pics, but the minute I saw it in person I fell in love.
February 14, 200719 yr I guess this thing is called a CL for a reason... the rear looks like an f-ing Acura. Sorry, but MB designs just don't strike me lately.
February 14, 200719 yr I saw one driving up the street recently...They look beautiful. They have a very nice presence.
February 14, 200719 yr Yeah, Honestly the photographs do not do justice for the car. You should see it in person. As much as I hated it when it came out, I loved the car when I saw one in dark gray near Orlando Airport.
February 14, 200719 yr Unlike the S-Class, the pronounced wheel arches work here. Most Mercedes bore me, however - even the MacLaren - simply because they're all in silver, silver, silver, silver. If I need another silver Mercedes, I'm going to gouge my eyes out with an auger. A different color makes this car hot. Chrome wheels makes it even hotter.
February 15, 200719 yr Um...yeah. The CL is automotive perfection. Although if I were in the market (for something that cost ten times what my car cost) I would go for the CL600 because 510hp and 612lb/ft would be just fine for me.
February 15, 200719 yr Ha! I do not find anything sexy about the CL. It's bland, bloated, and with a very dear price. Couple that with an unattractively designed albeit quality made interior, and I can think of other things I could spend my imaginary money on. Plus the electronics. We all know how great those will be.
