SECOND TRY: Photo Comparison of my C218 and C257 CLSs
Sorry to viewers of the previous post -- It is embarrassing to start a thread and not have the photo with the text. Apparently my VPN was preventing posting of photos. Here you go:
At the top is my current 2019 Polar White CLS53 (C257) in the Tetons, Wyoming. At the bottom is my 2012 Diamond White Metallic CLS63S (C218) in Kayenta, Utah which I traded for a 2016 GTS. The CLS63S was a beast (11.8 sec. quarter mile) and I think it looks better but it did not have any of the safety features included in the CLS53's Driver Assistance Package. What do you think?
I went through something similar when comparing models and figuring out which felt better day to day. One thing that helped me during my garage clean-up and setup was organizing all my car photo memories with nixplay.com—made it easier to look back at details from each model and made the decision feel more personal.

The C218 body lines make that car, in my opinion.
The C257 looks like they are trending back to a sedan look.
