I believe it's the CLK...the concept is called FASCINATION..kind of a wagon crossover. Looks pretty good.

If the new CLK or E Coupe' of whatever they call it looks like this, I'll be getting one in the 2nd year of production. I just hope the interior is done right also.

The current CLK has gotten away with 6 years of hardly any major changes to the body due to its non-aging design. Only Porsche can match that...but wait, they still haven't changed much. LoL!

Gotta say I love the looks though and I like the looks of the C Estate, but saddly the U.S. just doesn't like wagons..even the Dodge Magnum has been dropped for 2009 and I thought it was doing decent numbers. This concept won't be too far off of what a 2010 E Estate will look like, if they decide to bring it back, makes me excited for the new E!

This car is a design study at the moment and appears on the cover of the Sept. 11 car magazine auto motor und sport from Stuttgart with more pictures and details inside.

Looks to me like back to the B pillar it's what's coming very soon. The view of the rear end is not so nice. But the front, oh so pretty.

Ought to make BMW very nervous.

Grill definitely looks nice, but it reminds me too much of an Acura

was going to say the same thing
very JPN styled

the front looks very nice though
hopefully the CLK and E class will have the same resemblance
this is the most bare photo I could find of the actual test car for the CLK
LED fogs Porsche style. looks great already! 2010 is going to be a great year for Mercedes
