  | Monster's visit to the MB showroom (Photos) The C-class is the main attraction in the showroom, so I took a lot of photos of it. The white avantgard C220 is really nice.  I like the detailing of the headlights.             Trying out a different angle.  The C looks strange from this angle. The grille is really upright.  The elegance version looks very sporty as well. Both front end design looks great, I can't decide which one is better.   For those who can remember there was a silver CL in the showroom a while ago, this is another silver CL, but with matt wood trim.

| Re: Monster's visit to the MB showroom (Photos) Nice C 220 CDI, but the CL is just amazing - I only miss the AMG package!

| Re: Monster's visit to the MB showroom (Photos) The CL looks fabulous... I really love the C-Class. I definitely prefer the Elegance. The rims on this Elegance are really classy, too. Thanks for the pics.

| Re: Monster's visit to the MB showroom (Photos) For some reason the 2nd half of the CL photos disappeared. Here is the rest and my impression.   The interior is flawless, well almost, the central air vents are silver painted plastic, which doesn't feel as nice when you touch it and move it around. When I seat inside, it feels like I am just sitting inside another Mercedes, although everything is of the highest quality, it just doesn't feel special enough. I find this surprising considering the interior of the CL looks very nice in photos.  I just love the door design. Luxerious, elegant, and simple. It has just the right amount of wood trim and chrome.

| Re: Monster's visit to the MB showroom (Photos) There is also a nice CLK63 sitting next to the white C220. The car is starting to look dated now, even in AMG trim, but age hasn't really diminished its desirability. Can't get a good angle cause the showroom is packed with other cars.

| Re: Monster's visit to the MB showroom (Photos) Great photos! The profile of the CL is so elegant - this is how a Coupé should look like - this is also the reason why I love the CLK so much!! It's a bit old, but looks still great!!
