Mercedes C200K Coupe

well, i know its not a coupe cuz it has four doors :p but I first loved it cuz it looked like c coupe but with four doors.

I looked at it again, and all I saw was a wagon!
so is it a wagon or not? I mean when I register it... are they gonna call it wagon? (i.e. hummer is not registered as a truck.)

I think that's Jürgen Hubbert, head of Mercedes-Benz passenger cars.

But I'm sure you can still touch his monkey.

This is the upcoming GST, as Dark noted...

The GST [for Grand Sports Tourer] should be available next year sometime. It is not a concept - this is a picture of pretty much how the production car will look.

This is based very loosely on the E-chassis; AWD will be part of the package.

The Chrysler Pacifica is aimed at roughly the same market, but of course at a much lower price point. The GST will be a mid-$40s kind of vehicle, and going up steeply from there.

It reminds me of the new Nissan Murano/Infinity FX.

I think it can be used for either/or. That's what so cool about this car, its based on the boring wagon concept but with a stylish futuristic look. Maybe it's good to pick up wives?

I think the G is going to go away, but the ML will continue and there will be two sizes of ML's. There will be a longer one that is supposed to compete more with the larger SUV's.

Both the Pacifica and the GST are going to be big hits...the Pacifica is already racking up the kudos from the automotive press. I heard that the GST will be called the R-Class when it hits the street. I like GST better

Note how much the headlights in the photoshopped/spy pic of the 04 C-Class look like the GST's.



The headlights are the only thing I don't like

It's not just the headlights. Look at the hood and fender lines. So basically it is a current E-class from the front doors back with a photoshopped and modified GST front end. And guaranteed to never go into production looking like that.

I certainly hope not. I really like the roundish twin oval style in vogue right now. If MB adopts the stacked lights ala Cadillac and Infinity on its sedans, they can just take me off their list of potential buyers for any future products.

For those of us in the states, GST is that "rebate" you get on your Canadian vacations Now, if Canada could only offer 0% financing
