I seriously doubt MB would make something so ugly and japanese. Plus, look at the grill, it has 4 louvers whereas the new style has 3 louvers. I don't think they would go back to 4. By giving it 4, it makes me think these pictures were photoshopped about at least a year ago. And plus, this car sucks. They can't do this to the CLK.

The W208 CLK was great. The W209 got more feminine and ugly and this is even worse. They're dragging the CLK down with every new style. I'll be buying a W208 when I graduate college. Saves me money that they made the newer styles uglier than the old.

I think W208's rear after the rear windows looks much better than W209 but interior of W209 (2005+) is far nicer looking than W208. I just dont like how the back side windows 
looks :-(
looks :-(

W209 looks best and better than the 208 when all windows are down highlighting the pillarless design of the car...otherwise I agree the 208 looks better from that angle.
