I see and hear both in many places. Is the CLS a C219 or a W219?
I am guessing C219 since that's what the forum heading says but I see other places calling it a W219.

W = wagon(4doors) , C= coupe design CLS is C219. I guess it is considered more of a coupe than a sedan.

It is only called that way here in US. Go check out the German MB site.
