I haven't still seen the day when AMS manages to make a spot-on CGI...

Re: W204 C-Class Pictures from Auto Motor und Sport

I like the PS's a lot. The rear is the most appealing to me for some reason. But I agree with you TA, those side mirror lights aren't great looking.

Re: W204 C-Class Pictures from Auto Motor und Sport

Looks good. A C-Class with an AMG Package would look very nice. As many people have mentioned previously, the proportions of this car are absolutely spot-on - short front overhang, squat and solid over it's wheels. It's all very nice.

I must add though, the front headlights (I know they're not official, but just an observation) bear more than a passing resemblence to the Holden Statesman/Caprice.

Sure, the front and rear are quite different because of the lights and grill, and shape of the trunk. And yes, I think it is like a mini S-class, just like the W203 was a mini W220 with some subtle changes.

Like the trend for so many years now, this new C-class will be bigger in every dimension (and likely heavier) than the current C-class. I really like that front 3/4 view!!
You're right about that now that I think about it. Thanks for the correction.

Re: W204 C-Class Pictures from Auto Motor und Sport

That looks really good, I like the whole design.. The front end is very S-Class like while the rear reminds me of the new CL a lot. Looks like this new C has grown a bit in size,


The article is saying the C63 will use the huge 6.2liter V8 with a reported 450hp.
I posted this news a while back. I hope MB sticks to the task. That engine seems really huge for such a small car.

Hay, did anyone else notice the front hood cutout? seems it cuts right into the fender, unusual for an MB.

Re: W204 C-Class Pictures from Auto Motor und Sport

Yeah I noticed that about the hood. I'm betting this was done for some type of pop-up safety system for the hood for Euro pedestrian safety regs. I've never seen a MB hood overlap like that either. The CL's hood is a different design too.

Re: W204 C-Class Pictures from Auto Motor und Sport



As you may have noticed, problems with our internet connection have prevented us from posting any stories this delightful November morning. It appears, however, that we're back online, so I will now attempt to quickly cover anything I've missed today.

First up are spy photos published by Winding Road which depict the undisguised back end of the upcoming 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Revealed for the first time are the new model's tail lights, bumper, trunk and both doors; and I have to say, I think it looks pretty damn good.

To see the spy shots in their entirety, head over to Winding Road for the full set.
