The C Class Sport Coupe has been spotted again, after last weeks revealing spy photos we now have more photos as well as a new illustration. The sportcoupe's name is likely to be replaced by the somewhat easier “CLC” badge.
Based on the same platform as the outgoing C Class, the new CLC shows similar design characteristics as the C Class sedan. But this new generation is going have a tough time in what has been become a hugely competitive market due to the recent introduction of the 300hp BMW 1 Series Coupe, not to mention the Audi A3.
The previous model received a facelift in 2004, so we expect to see the CLC debut sometime during 2008.

To whoever this concerns, Mercedes-Benz has no competitor as they are in their own league. As well as the Mercedes Maybach has no competitor, the Mercedes-Benz A-Class is the only Mercedes-Benz you can compare to other companies like bmw,audi vw and all that other crap.
But what I do not like with the CLC is that they kept the side view exactly as the one of the old model. It seems that they did not want so spend too much money for renewing the car.
