C Class Body Style Change
Anyone know when the C Class bodystyle changes from the W204?
Any links or pics?
Thinking about upgrading to the 2011 W204, but wondering when the body style changes...

You're right. I read an article about that in MotorTrend. They also provided a sketch, the next C kind of looks like a small CLS/SLS. I'll have to see if I can find the magazine with the article. I'll post a pic of it. There was also mention of MB bringing the A Class to the US too.

2016 C300 4Matic Lux w/ P1, P2, Lighting Package
Just an FYI - true that the fog lamps are replaced by the LED strips (standard on the sport model and available on the lux model with the bi-x lighting package), but the LEDs are daytime running lamps and not fogs lights!

If that Car & Driver picture is close to accurate then... yuck! I like the looks of the W203 better than the W204, but that W205 rendering looks ugly!

It's not accurate. It's a concept car MB designed to showcase their new styling direction. Expect the 2014 C-Class to have similar design language but much less radical.
