I like it. Not big on 2-doors, but since I love the CLS and the E, this is a nice blend, IMO.

So a CLK is now named an E-coupe? That's a little confusing, unless you are saying the author is just plain wrong.

They're dropping the CL and CLK names back to S Coupe and E Coupe.

So shouldnt it be C-coupe then? There hasn't been a coupe based on an E chasis since the W124 correct?

It's good to see it will be an E class again, I still think they should keep the CL name, but the CLK always ended up with the good bits from the E but the crappy (read: interior) bits from the C, and calling it an E might finally get that to change.

I saw this on the 110-N today driving in to work. It looked very CLS-ish from the front and side. I liked it a lot though!

SOOOOOOOOOO much better than the new E class. I'm so glad the new E is probably the only ugly model coming.

Why are all these threads being moved to the w211 forum. This isn't even about the w211. I think our mods are getting trigger happy with the Move function...

C-coupe is the CLC. Anyone confused yet?

The front is fine. It's the "butt" that's the problem.

You mean in Europe it's not selling? It's the only place it's available right now for the last couple of weeks.

I think it looks good. My lease is up in 7-2010 so I may be getting into one after I've seen them in person. It may need to grow on everyone. I didnt like the CLS when it first came out but now I like it after seeing it on the road so much.
