AMT Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) Not a big fan of Mercs , but I've always loved the original CLS.... heres the new one It's like a parts bin job of shapes... its terrible and looks unfinished. More the front and back thats the issue, probably due to the light designs. http://www.carbuzz.com/news/2017/11/28/Here-s-The-New-Mercedes-CLS-Before-You-re-Supposed-To-See-It-7742221/ Edited November 28, 2017 by AMT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Iv never been a fan of the first 2, hate the original one. But this one takes the biscuit- that back end is hideous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) Merc have lost the plot on the rear of their cars this styling cycle. C coupe, A coupe, both just as ugly as this one. Edited November 28, 2017 by Ekona 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Could be worse could be the new Vantage 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMT Posted November 28, 2017 Author Share Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) People will still buy it though, just like they have the others. I can think of better ways of spending the money for good looking car...which this isn't. I call it 1-Series syndrome... Every 1-Series was horrid...yet sold by the bucket load. (only saved by the 2 series). Edited November 28, 2017 by AMT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMT Posted November 28, 2017 Author Share Posted November 28, 2017 The 1-Series will never be a good looking car with its face and general shape... it was 'getting there' with the coupe but the 2 Series then came. I still wouldn't have that either tbh, looks boring as hell. How dare you talk about Aston Martin with such...words. I have a thing for Astons, big GT's... cept the DB11... that can go in the bin for all I care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 maybe if they had the front of the db11 and rear of the vantage they would have a car thats nice from all angles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Also how can this be called boring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzman Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I think this looks just... ordinary? I don't think it's particularly great or ugly. I think it'll just disappear into the background of boring cars pretty quickly. Nice interior though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzman Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 And the A7 was introduced after the original CLS as a rival for in this segment... but Mercedes have seemingly copied the design of the A7 with this. They've not pushed the boundaries enough here at all for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey_83 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) Loved the MK1, so different in its design language. Really smart and striking on the road, for all the right reasons imo. Edited November 28, 2017 by davey_83 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock_Steady Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Yeah, that's an ugly duckling that will grow to be....... and ugly duck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMT Posted November 29, 2017 Author Share Posted November 29, 2017 I don't want to even mention the A7.... with its horrid backside. Wheres the tail?! I'll even admit I don't like the 370's cut off tail. The MK2 Nismo saves it with its better spoiler. I don't like short looking cars.

Jetpilot Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I think the new Mercs look like they have been in a microwave too long and drooped . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 The CLS has to be the most hideous car from the outset. All versions look like some sagging banana, visually awful looking cars every version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you talking about? The coupe is a good looking car, no two ways about it and the 1M is an awesome looking car. You can say "oh, but it looks like everything else" but at the end of the day its got an engine in the front and 4 seats, its not going to look like a Lambo As for CLS - always been a bit of an ugly duckling for me, and it just got worse. Compare it with the 6 Series Coupe ........ how can you go that wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ojai Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 We had a CLS Grand Edition and most people we met loved the shape, a 4 door coupe, basically. I'd have another if i needed a do it all car again. Currently we have 4 cars doing the various chores and thrills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
