Exhaust tip
Shorter rear bumper
More slanted trunk / rear
I think slightly larger front windows
Two Spoke grill

No improvements if you ask me. Gotta see the inside.
Thanks for the pix.

Great, good job killing the CLS. That rear end looks like crap. So much for the prettiest car ever.

I agree, they soften the back way too much. It's probably a lot more aerodynamic and it'll probably not collect so much dust on the rear bumper now but it comes at a very high styling cost. In fact if anything I would sharpen the back more not soften it.

only thing i see is the grill, ugly wheels, and exhaust. Window size is definitely the same as that would be a huge stamping change.

Oh that's horrible. I've been admiring the CLS from afar every since it came out and have been planning on getting one someday.

The grill looks different some how. But what really strikes me is that they seem to have taken out some of the rake from the windshield to the front bumper. That was one of the things I loved about the body.

Does anyone else see that, or am I just imagining it?
