The same could be said for the camo. What it hides is vital. How many times have you knuckleheads had the same conversation about a previous MB model. The ML, the S. Sure we knew the basic shape, but the photoshops of the camoed versions didn't do justice to the final product.

Absolutely correct, I don't expect Mercedes to dissapoint.

I get it, but it's not rocket science that's for sure. I love the W221, looks great, so if anything that's a compliment to the looks of this upcoming W204 C-class. However I was expecting something a bit different, I still may end up liking it when PR pics are offically released, we shall see.

Its going to be a nice looking car, no doubt but I highly doubt its going to be as radical as the S class but I hope my intuition is wrong. When is this car's official press release? Does anybody have an idea?

Beginning of '08 probably as an 09' model. It could be that the W203's lfiespan is cut down to six instead of the tradiational seven years. However W203 sales are quite slow from a global prospective, so an early launch at the beginning of next year is very possible, at the same time we won't get the car until several months after the initial launch in Europe.

Oh yeah definitely early next year like at Geneva, not the start of 08'. That would mean the C here in the U.S. would have to go 2 more model years! It can't make it that long.
