New CLK

I read that MB may name the 2015/2016 C Coupe the CLK. Anyone heard about this?

BTW. The 2015 C sedans look great.

NO LONGER ACTIVE
I haven't heard that, but it makes some sense. The "CLK" was neither a "small" CL nor was it an "E-Class" coupe. Even the new A207 is really not an E-Class, although the styling is similar.

None for now
I hope so, because the CLK name is a very sporty yet luxurious name at the same time

The current C Coupe body style is only 2 years old.
Will MB bring out a new body so soon?

Well, I like this part:

"While the CLK is expected to undercut the BMW 4 Series and the next Audi A5 with a coupe and convertible version that will both be available with the 4Matic all-wheel-drive system."

I can't stand those headlights.

Hope there's a convertible too, but probably not.

Benz has been talking about reviving the CLK moniker for a while.

This is a nice new chassis to do it on.
