It looks better than the re-skinned CLC. It's actually based ont he the W204? I don't have time to read it.

Keep in mind that the pictures are artist renderings and not actual cars. That said its probably not that much of a stretch to think the CLK will look like that, thats the front end off the new E class. Makes sense to portray the CLK as a two door E class if they are planning to build a smaller version that plays off the C class cues.

C300 Sport
I think they are dropping the bar giving it a soft top instead of a hardtop to compete with the E93

They tell you upfront that these are drawings...so good job to them. Its gotten so easy with the technology we have today to fake anything..seen any movies lately? Some places don't mention the fact that its just their interpretation of what they think it will look like and have people thinking its the real deal (cough Motor Trend cough) not to mention the pictures have a logo for the design studio stamped on them. The interior shots are the real deal, they are shots from a test mule, the last picture of the CLK is a test mule that they photo shopped the coverings (camo) off of, which explains the really bad emblem on the trunk lid.

Heres the same picture, only they are showing you what they think the "shooting brake concept" would look like.

I know it's just a drawing, but it looks like the W204 will remain mostly un changed through 2010.
