This can't possible be the same Martin who thinks the GLK has a genuine purpose ...can it?

Of course the CL is pointless ....it offers nothing that the S class doesn't -- in fact, it offers less than an S class. But you well know Martin that it is purely about prestige. A Mercedes coupé is always considered to be more glamorous than a 4-door model.

No hang on a sec...

I'm not disputing the CL's purpose - I'm saying that it looks dull and boring. I don't care what it does.

^ you might think the AMG package looks far better ....but it is not appropriate for all situations. The AMG package is blingy ....it is intended to make the car appear more aggressive -- this does not suit every buyer.

Are you really suggesting that the only thing that makes the CL attractive is a few extra plastic moldings?
