I saw few weeks ago this new model Cls AMG 63(?) version in camouflage and it atleast sounded amazing, but I still prefer that older model.

The new CLS will not look good without the AMG package. That sports package is a must. Without it, it will look like a bland e class.
Haha, I know I've posted a lot of pics of it but actually I'm in 2 minds about it. I dont like the busy lines on the side of the car or the rear lights. I made a quick chop of changes before but it still a nice car and I think in real life it will have presence on the road.

It just annoys me when designs arent perfect. Another example is the A7. We already have the A5 in sportback form, we dont need the A7 to have sportback design. It has such a nice front and interior. All it needs is a proper rear end with a low cut roof. That would be amazing.

It's the Stewie Griffin headlight configuration... maybe they have a "Family Guy" edition of the car?

I think it's a trend going on that many new cars look ugly in the pics and in real life, they look utterly stunning. I think CLS falls in this category as well.
About the A7 and A5 sportsback debate, yeh I thought the same thing that why do they need another ''4 door coupe''?
I'm assuming there must be high demand for this sort of segment.
Another reason could be that they are making different scales in this segment. A5 sportsback for the middle class and A7 for the higher class.
