Default Mercedes - Benz E-Klasse Coupé





I know it's cliché, but this car looks like a blend of an Audi, BMW, and a Lexus.

it looks a lot better than the sedan, but does this mean that the CLK is dead? I mean isn't this the same?

Yes. Yes it is.

*That little window in the DLO makes it look like a sedan.

Even the alloys look a little RS4ish!!! Nice though!

It looks horrible. I'd take the current CLK any day.

Yeah, no more CLK. And the next generation big CL will be called the S Class Coupe, just like the olden days in the 90s.

Interesting how MB started the whole convention of naming their coupes with a different Model and now they are switching it back to just "Coupe" of whatever class. Wonder if other manufactures will follow suit again.
