The Deutsche Mark is dead and was replaced by the Euro in 2002

Well I hope the pricing list on the last page was incorrect then.

What's the news on this? I just saw it on mbusa.com and I gotta tell ya, the front looks ugly!

advans

actually I like the new front. I dont like the back I can tell you that.

I saw the new CL on the street today (opposite direction) and it looks pretty hott from the front. and the CL front and the C class front is very similar.


but...whats with all these W204 threads lately. you should post up on the old one if you have any info.

The W204 in the vid only had a regular sunroof!?

Chi-Benz

The Panoramic sunroof will be an option, while the regular sunroof will come standard.

The question is what if you don't want a sunroof? I would but I think there are some that may not want one...

slammer111

That is seriously strange. You'd think it'd be kinda stupid to manufacture a car with 2 different sunroof options. Anyone who wants a sunroof will most likely go for the panorama option anyways.

Guess those who don't want the sunroof just have to keep the inner cover closed It's like making a car with Xenon and Bi-xenon options.

Not necessarily, The e class comes with 2 options for the sunroof, The pano and the standard. But i rarely see an e class that's not an e55 with a pano, it seems that the majority all have the standard.

I like the grill without the star better, star looks better on the hood.
Pano roof is nice.

Also found Sport Package Specs on http://www.mercedes-amg.com/
Click on "SHOWROOM" then on "OPTIONAL EXTRAS" you'll see the W204 link.

So far I like the pano roof, all the standard features, and I like that they are keeping the AMG body kit standard on "sport models"...but I like the MB star on the hood as well plus the trunk looks really shrunk in...and the headlights with the big eye brow look still seem weird to me. As I expected the car is growing on me.

I'm sorry for creating a new thread haha, I was looking for it! Just noticed this one...

And yeah, my opinion of this car has kinda changed... I want it, badly.

Good videos by the way, and agreed about the emblem on the hood instead of grill, looks much nicer.

Thanks for the videos, looks cool!

the front looks pretty good but it does kinda look like a acura. the body style is ok but the rear looks UGLY!!! looks like a toyota prius haha... im so glad i got the w203

tee_tz

Um no it's not.

The E-Class and S-Class are the same. Some people don't want the 'glassy' top, some do. Some people don't need a rear sunroof, some do. It's good to have it as an option. People have different personalities than you...

exactly...also the MBUSA site shows that the regular sunroof will be standard on all 2008 C-Classes. Since it is already standard on the E and the S, that means the Panaorama roof will be the upgraded package for all three sedans.

I would not buy this new W204 based on interior alone.
It reminds me of a cross between the BMW 3-series and Audi A4 I test drove, and hated the design of both. The well placed, simple, yet elegant interior of the W203 is what sold me while driving my car.

If they wanted to go after BMW/Audi drivers, they should've done wit with sport models that are actually sporty - sports suspension (not the joke MB current trys to pass as sport) and manual transmissions.
