Hmmm...

They could have at least styled the rear lights differently. This could pass for a facelift.

Exactly. I wonder if it will also be getting the w204 interior. Since MB are this cheap this upgrading the car I hope that they'll decrease the price.
Because here in Sweden the asking price for the C180 coupe is disgustingly unreasonable for the car, 27 500 euro.

This car should be in the low 20k spectrum like the 1er and A3.

To be honest I wasn't expecting anything radical. Mercedes had long before announced that the next generation Sportcoupe would be based on the W203 chassis, so it was obviously going to be a low-investment product from the start.

In Europe, especially in Germany, the C-Class Sportcoupe was actually pretty popular amongst younger buyers. Basically there is still a demand out there for it, so I am guessing this is the reason Mercedes is continuing the car.

I always found the C-Class Sportcoupe to be somewhere in the middle in terms of looks. It's not beautiful, but it's not ugly either (especially the facelift version). With the proper rims and colors, it could turn heads.

I have - facelifted -2005 C 180 Sportcoupe (code CL203) it is ObsidianBlack and full+full (Evolution AMG pack ) it's handling better than W203 -under test-

if you are lonely driver that car is enough for you
if you are daily city driver that car is great -less petrol-

So Why people do not want W204 Sportcoupe do not understand , I like W204 nose/face and if I do not need extra two doors, W204 Sportcoupe will be enough for me with W204's technologic improvement. Before tlaked , Sportcoupe is not like coupe , it is more Hatcback car and pratic car .

Yes only, I do not understand Why MB sells this car high price, with my Sportcoupe was expensive than W203 Saloon that Why Sportcoupe was not selled more in the world people get Saloon instead of SC.

100% agree. I hope this thing at least gets the W204 interior. If it's going to be expensive, it should at least come better equipped.

Agreed. This is just pathetic.

I have C sportcoupe -yes it is not real coupe it is Hatchback=HB car-

it is useful yes but it has design problems. But really meybe 2 door car design is hard . So ı do know real problem MB with this segment. I thinl CLK is real coupe and enough for the market. But no need more C Sportcoupe. more different car products for one car maker is not good idea .

Thought MB would drop this thing since the 3compact is gone, and they have A AND B class out there now.. this thing will never look good with that shape imo.
