Mercedes-Benz C-Class W202 station wagon, CLS-Class Shooting Brake, G300 CDI Professional Pritsche W461 … what do all these Mercedes have in common?

They never were sold by the company in the U.S., which we guess could be good or bad, depending on your taste and personal needs.

Oh, and you can thank Auto Week for reminding us of what you’ve missed out on, if any of those three vehicles really pique your interest. In fact, the auto enthusiast site actually dug up seven Mercedes-Benz models that “America never got, but should have,” as they put it.

In addition to the three noted above, the list also includes the A-Class W168, the Sprinter pickup, the Mercedes V-Class van, and the CLA-Class Shooting Brake.

In the full report, Auto Week also shares some insight on whether or not any of these Mercedes models can be imported to the U.S. But don’t get too excited; most of the really hot vehicles on their list won’t be available here anytime soon.
