'12 CLS 550 4matic
New '16 550 4matic

Anybody get one yet and can tell me the difference between my '12? From what I see not too much, but not much is needed on such a stellar car. I'm going to order one this month in Steel Grey w/ blk interior. My '12 blk / blk going back on lease.

- Larger nav screen and media/app options
- Different engines
- Headlights are amazing (some features not availabe in US)
- Interior lighting optiosn
- Eco options (I hate em!)

probably a bunch more!

He may be referencing the CLS400.

I decided against another CLS, cause it's becoming to impractical for my family of 5. Wife has a '14 GL450 7 seater , but can't be limited to just that for the tribe. Since MB made the bad move of eliminating the 550 engine from the E class sedan, I went w/ a '16 550 x-drive M sport sedan. I take delivery of it next week.

Isn't the BMW smaller than the CLS? Even though it's a 5 seater?

Yeah I think the BMW 550 uses a 4.4 ltr twin turbo.

It might be, but lack of 5 seats in CLS kills it for me now.
