Wow!!! you just know the next one is going to be a stunner! I like what I`m seeing so far! the front and 3/4th view is better than the current one if it turns out like this. The front view of the normal CLS is a very weak boring design without the sport AMG kit. This new one will be way more dynamic looking all around, hell yes!  |

Interesting indeed. We all know Huckfeld when it comes to Mercedes impressions. I wonder if this one is based on something he has seen or if it's his wild imagination  . The front end and bonnet design is very sexy, I'm unsure about the fog lights though. I'm most certain that the car will get LED fog lights for a more eye candy appeal.OCD and F600 inspired.   |

Side profile looks a bit strange at first, it lacks the sleekness of the current CLS in my opinion. But it's still in the early stages, note that Huckfeldt's accuracy is only high in the final years, like 1-2 years before release. Expect that the next generation CLS-class will be released about 2 years after the next generation E-class, which is around 2011-2012. Huckfeldt's impression seems to be based on the Ocean Drive Concept and the F700 Conceptcar.  More details concerning the next generation CLS-class can be read in the next issue of Autobild available this week's friday. Scanners anyone?

Wow, it looks beautiful, lets hope this could be real although it is still too early to tell. I like how the grill line flows with the lines inside the headlights. |

A CLS500 was parked outside my building this morning and I was thinking to myself; "MB is gonna have a hard time replacing this beautiful sculpture".... Especially now that they've got plenty of competition. |
