Very emphatic no!!!

The CL is the most exclusive line in the Mercedes lineup. To do something like THAT is blatant irreverence!

The convertible thing should be left to the CLK and the SL

If it came with hard-top, I would really have liked it, but I don't think a canvas-top fits a car like this...

Um, yeah...seems like it would fill almost exactly the same niche as the new SL. If it looks like a new SL, is priced like a new SL, and uses the same engines as a new SL, it must be...a CL convertible?

Seems to me the only appeal would be the novelty of this car.
