FIRST PHOTOS CONCEPT STYLE COUPE

I was unsure of where to post this but thought it fit the best with the C-Class. It is the new CSC or Concept Style Coupe that debuts next week. These are the first official photos and there are nearly 40 of them showing the interior and exterior. The top link goes straight to the photo gallery and the bottom link goes to the article.

Is it bad that Mercedes has raised the bar so high that you just come to expect absolute greatness (such as this car is)? Don't get me wrong, this car is AMAZING, but it's not "surprising" coming from Mercedes because you know MB makes some of the most amazing cars. Now if Ford came out with a design like this, then I would be surprised. Anyway, enough useless chatter, awesome car

Too bad -- this seems to be based on a front drive platform --> look at the huge front overhang. The gap between the front wheel arch and the drivers door has shrunk to the size of the 90's Audis. Even Audi has been trying to move the front wheels forward and you'll notice that on newer A4s the wheels are more forward.

One of the things I liked about eh C300 was that wheel forward look. While the rest of the coupe is interesting, it does seem to me like a front wheel drive platform (even if offered with all-wheel drive) with transverse engine. Just don't like the look of those.
