Strange results, can't believe the Benz was beaten in front ride comfort. Having sat inside the CLS it is quite a cramped car unlike other coupish cars like the Jaguar XF which has a very roomy backseat. |

I went with the Volkswagen Passat CC despite being a hardcore Mercedes fan. I think the Passat CC looks fresher and sleeker and makes the CLS appear a little boring even. When I saw this baby at Geneva I knew Volkswagen has created a really stunning vehicle. Too bad I have not seen one on the road yet though. The biggest drawback for the Passat CC is a FWD layout which might prevent more powerful engines from being offered in the future. I think a Passat CC 36 would have been awesome.  |

As far as the aesthetics counts...here the CLS is just so much more elegant, everything flows admirably. The CC is completely artificail, you really see they were trying too hard. Lack of natural. However, I have yet to see the CC IRL, so no definitive statement here...but in pics the CC is completely owned. Agree, it looks everything but German. Fron'ts quite boring, rear's quite weird so is the side... CLS all the way! Which means I voted for the Passat of course...  | |

The only thing I don't like about the CC are those terrible alien head tail lights that jut out of the rear.  |
