it looks okay--once they remove all of the black tape especially on the rear side windows.

frankly, I've never been totally in love with our cars overall exterior looks--bits and pieces are really cool and overall our car looks above average--I think it's hard to design fresh new looking cars with all of the BS designers have to comply with from the regulators

if the coupe has our engine, exhaust note, etc. it will be a hot seller regardless in my opinion--personally I need four doors now (this is the only sedan I've owned) so the coupe won't be on my shopping list anytime soon!

I can definitely see some of the honda accords lines, but once they remove the camo, I have a feeling people will come around.

You said it best. Just like the CTS-V. The 4door looks really nice but they just killed it with the coupe.

Now thats hot.

Sadly you gotta design a coupe from the bottom up. Soon as you take a Sedan and try to make it a coupe it gets ugly in my opinion. Just like the CTSV.

Yes
I agree, every new release of a car people say "thats ugly"...I remember when the E46 came out how the E36 guys felt, same with the E92, same with the C63 at first. I bet it will grow on people.

Having said that.....that thing is HOT Seriously. Needs bigger wheels though, looks like its got matchbox wheels.

Just imagine that C-Class coupe in a Black Series version with the V8 Bi-Turbo version pumping out xxxhp? Just hope it's not going to be overpriced.

Jesus, do my stock 18 inch wheels really look that bad? I might have to get a new set of shoes after seeing these pics.

Seriously, those stock 18's somehow look horrible. Yikes.

That brabus EV12 is wholly crap super sexy.
I agree with most that it does not look great.
The only successful sedan to coupe conversion IMHO is Audi A4 to A5.

I guess this leaves room for the aftermarket to improve on the design.

First time I saw a pic of the C63 I liked it. I don't care for the coupe version of our car. I'm a coupe guy as well but I think I'll get another C63 sedan.

I like it, It just needs to be lowered from the back.

I do look forward to a fully non camouflaged final pic of the C63 version before I write it off.

I agree, a little more C63 sedan flaring and it should look pretty good. I really want it to have the same charisma that the E92 shape has.

I wanna ask, what did people think of the E-Class coupe when it was first spied? From what I hear now, people praise it.
