Our moderator Phil recently did a pick up in Germany & got walked through the design studios sans camera of course. While not exact by any means he suggests this is the latest direction for W205.

If C-Class production is destined for Tuscaloosa, can the GLK and a 350 engine from Tennessee be far behind? Or will we get GLKs from China? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.........

Don't worry if you get a Benz model built in China. They do a brilliant job of the W204.

Be that as it may, it goes against my grain. No worries. I'm not buying another vehicle.

Makes sense, it has a little bit of everybody, from Audi to BMW to Infiniti, even Hyundai... these stylists are all close buddies that rotate from brand to brand...

Those taillights are HIDEOUS! They look like the head of a praying mantis. The taillights on the current CLS are tolerable, but these on the other hand... Makes me want to buy a W204 rather than upgrade to a W205.

That's really awful. Of course the suicide doors could not be certified here, the tail is too short to put anything in the trunk and the nose is too long. That scoop ahead of the rear wheel would be a rock catcher if it ever made it to production. And getting Grandma in the back seat would not be possible.

I don't believe it.

VERY CLS-like. I like it!

With the right engines, it will be a winner.
