I saw the new W204 C-Class in person! - 02-25-2007, 08:29 AM

Hey guys,

Just came back from Frankfurt yesterday and on the way there (Tuesday), I saw a truck transporting about 9 new Mercedes W204 C-Classes coming past me on the Autobahn.

As I was driving, I obviously couldn't take a picture but having gotten a glimpse of the real thing from the distance, I have to say: IT LOOKS PRETTY SWEET! More sporty than luxurious to be honest. That's about all I can say for now.

I did spot this and was able to snap a picture.

Looks like one to me.

You're most welcome.

I just wish I could have photographed the W204 C-Class trailer as well. I came across it near Stuttgart. Looks like Mercedes is sending them across Germany for the Verkaufsstart.

They definitely do!!! You can study the same procedure in Bremen!
On the autobahns around, you can also see a lot of prototypes. When the SL was quite new, I saw a "werkswagen"!

Which version was it?

Avantgarde, or Classic / Elegancce?

I saw a couple of Avantgarde models, they're easy to differentiate because of their unique grille. There were also some Classic or Elegance models onboard. Not sure which exactly since this happened so fast. All I saw as the unique grille of the Avantgarde models and some with the star on the hood as opposed to integrated in the grille, then the truck was gone. But the sight of those W204's was pretty cool. I'm really diggin the design.

That's one nice truck Christian...It looks like there's white 997 Turbo, 3rd in a down row.

Didn't know C-Class is already hitting the dealerships...
