I dont get how people are saying they copied Hyundai and the Passat CC. Remember, they came up with the original banana design and it is the others that are copying the their style.

Also, for the front I blacked out the silver grille strips (left the chrome ones) and moved the fog lights higher to make the side intakes look bigger. On the rear I made the lights less drooping and straightened them out. They don't sit so low now and the inner cluster design is more horizontal than the current sloping design.

Overall, I think small changes would change the look of the car. Let's not forget the AMG treatment.

This is a definite improvement. The angle of the taillights has really bothered me.

AMG sport kit looks good. Front looks better with single bar in grille.

DASHOCKER · 08-22-2010, 01:42 PM

This car looks like an Infiniti M.

cloakster · 08-22-2010, 01:52 PM

The front sorta looks SLS like, which is the part of the SLS i dont like

I want them to keep the current CLS...looks so much better than this. Hopefully it looks better in person...the SLS does, so maybe this will.

@GuyOh: lmfao!

Edit: At a second glance this looks like they took the front of a SLS and E class and the rear of a S class to make the new CLS. Very Mercedes like i must say :P

vioaltec · 08-22-2010, 08:34 PM

The front looks like the new jaguar XJ

335ifanatic · 08-23-2010, 06:52 AM

Yikes, the side profile looks awful.

SHEEDI · 08-23-2010, 08:25 AM

there was a time,when every car has its original look,but now a days, everybody is copying each other's designs and it sucks and its boring now.

nobody has its origibnal design any more.

It looks good here. The full LED headlamps are better executed than those in the A8 imo, and the tail looks better in motion.

I also might have a new favorite steering wheel.

Los Angeles · 08-26-2010, 01:26 AM

I still stand by my previous statement that this car is going to be gorgeous in person!

Los Angeles · 08-26-2010, 02:16 AM

Can someone photoshop this car in black plz?

dirtyylicous · 08-26-2010, 12:55 PM

Current is way better but these pics are pretty nice. Way better than the first set, im gonna have to wait to see it in person to give my full opinion. I thought the new Eclass was ugly in pics til i seen it in person

I still think they lost it on this iteration.

I like the upright grille. It's definitely becoming a trend (prob as a byproduct of pedestrian safety standards) and I like how it creates an elongated hood effect.

The rear fenders are definitely awkward though. Good idea with poor execution.
