I said the same thing about the new E Class sedan. The new coupe is guess what........ an e class coupe. Yawn BORING!!!

Thomas55

I had the oppertunity to see this car live and it looks real nice.

Sometimes pictures don't do these cars justice. I'm gonna need to see it in person. I'm still pissed about it being called an E class coupe. The steering wheel looks like its from the new C class.

You took the words right out of my mouth...it used to be the Japs stealing from the Germans, now it's the other way around.

garbage!!!

Stiggs

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Anyone else notice it doesn't look like the rear window goes down. It has some sort of pillar on it. If thats the case then MB really screwed up.

MB260E

335i coupe much?

PJmak

they ruined the E class, now CLK, whats next?

MARTYMAR

This car is an embarrassment to the MB brand. There is such a thing of over doing it. Why O' Why?

55 ON IT

I'd wait for the AMG version before I pass judgment. I hated the CLS, but once I saw the CLS55...

DBLNICKL

haha, the CLS had to grow on me as well...i'm thinkin bout one of those next...but this new CLK or Ecoupe whatever u want to call it is NOT HOT...i hate to say it, but the M3 is starting to look good as well................

Improviz

It probably is; apparently this thing's chassis is based upon the C Class, not the E Class.

Stuttgart-UT

thats bulls**t... do you know why it's called E-Coupe? ... ... YES because it's based on the E-Class

thats exactly what the people said after the last Clk was released!

This car rocks wait after you see it in person...

M-bENZ

I agreed.

SaMaS

wait untill you see it in person... same story with every new model....

cheops911

looks like they let the Chrysler designers come up with this one....for good or bad, what a DRASTIC change

Improviz

Car & Driver isn't the National Enquirer, and I'm sure they checked this out before going to print with it. Plus, other publications have reported the same thing.

We'll find out soon enough, and frankly, I hope they're wrong: it would be a huge mistake imo to market a vehicle built on a C-Class chassis as an "E-Class coupe".

electronics might be better since it's new...
but overall design-wise, W209 FTW!

AMGOODNESS

I guess I am crazy. I think the car looks pretty good. The rear quarter panel treatment was a nice touch. The AMG version will probably have some serious meat on the back. Give that car the AMG treatment and a much lower stance and it will be a handsome car. My only gripe is that the car looks huge. 208 to 209 produced a much bigger and heavier car and it looks like they are continuing the trend. That car is at least 4,000 lbs.

I am pretty sure all four windows will roll down just like on our CLK's. The design looks identical to me. Anyone read German?

Stiggs

Look at those pics again...very closely. There is a piece on the very back of the rear window. If it goes down then the whole window can't go down. Look at the pic where they show the front and back seats. See that piece on the rear window. Doesn't look like it goes down to me.
I hope its not true....it would be sucky.

SoCalCLK

I noticed it. The rear window may roll down, except that stupid piece will not.
