I'm sorry but it seems you are alone on this one. Most of us love the car and don't think it's girlie at all!

I dont see how it can be a girls car. Even so if people think of it as a girl car, i bet when someone slaps on 20's with a brabus kit on, that car wont be no girls car anymore.

Anyone can make a girl car look like a mans car....but to start of, no way would the cls looks like a girls car. More like a classy men's car.

In stock form, yes a SC430 looks kinda girly.
So does the Celica.
The Sidekick is from what company? Dahistu? I dunno...

CLS without the AMG kit does look a bit feminene, but hell, I thought the CLK W209 did as well.

CLS stock is a bit gay i must admit, something about the narrow looking front bumper. But a simple kit would fix that, and like Brabus04CLK said, a set of 20's wouldnt hurt.

If anyone considers the CLS to be "girly", then I'll pay good money to put "girly" in my garage all day long and make no apologies for it. Come on, April!

Honestly, you must be blind to think this CLS looks girly? Perhaps sexy and with curves that only hot girls have, but not girlie at all!
