Next Generation Mercedes CL






Browsing around the boards today it seems that the overall consensus on this redesign is favorable. To me the new design shouts: Big Money! Whereas the current design is more reserved. I guess it becomes a question of how do you like your top of the range coupe served? I'll say this: I really didn't like the S-Class when I first saw it in pictures. Even at the LA Auto Show I wasn't so impressed with the looks of the sedan. However, now that I've seen S-Classes on the road I'm much more attracted to the design. Not "cash in the the 401K" impressed but I certainly wouldn't kick it out of the driveway. I think the new CL will be a similar story--especially with some different wheels. For your reference, I've thrown in a couple of photos of the current CL.
