hope it's a bit better than this. as usually for an artists rendering, it doesnt really look that cohesive. and of all the renderings of the next e & clk class, im tired to people just taking headlamp units from the new c/s-class and slicing them in two!

Look at the last photo of the front closely. Looks like the headlamps are split to me...

Lot's of 3 series dna in the profile. I hope the production version has an identity of its own.

you guys must be kidding... the SL you call ugly and this is nice though?! The CL and the new SL are the only Mercedes to buy...

THANK YOU! Like the first one to notice that this looks like a Mercedes-Benz GS430 or something!

This is just a rendering, but sliced squared headlights would look much better than the old oval scheme, and I'm sure MB's designers would avoid any obvious ressemblance with Lexus' GS series. Unlike Jaguar...

i hope they put the grille on it like the w208 clk had and offer the griller the current clk has as an option like on the new C class.

Mercedes grill, Honda lights, 3 series side profile, and Pontiac G6 "C" pillar. This car is revolting. Did Mercedes hire Chris Bangle?
Bangle didn't move BMW into the future with his designs and this kind of car looks something a home ec teacher would think was cool. Maybe Bangle or one of his believers has set out to ruin Mercedes. Follow Audi not BMW when it comes to design guys. BMW is just now starting starting to tone down some of their flames surfacing. Anyone who chooses this car over the Audi S5 or 335i is clearly not concerned about design. They just want a three point star up front.

What is wrong with this picture? Lexus headlights as some of you guys already pointed out. Merc designs are going downhill but hey its a Merc, people will still buy it no matter how bad it looks. The SL is a shocker too.
AUDI ALL THE WAY!!!! Audi should now be the leading luxury brand. Open your eyes people! They are better in styling and quality.

Again, I have to agree with what kevoluetion said.
This car is a lexus copy. Shame on you MB!

Aside from some, german car designs are going to hell. First BMW, now MB will join them. Only Audi, and in some aspects Porsche (besides that hideous upcoming sedan) is doing a finer job.

The Front is a lexus, the back reminds the BMW 3 Coupe back.. It looks great Tho',... did the artists forgot about the turn indicator in the side view mirror.. ;-)

I don't understand, why you often quote it a Bangle-design. He has a completely different style and his design leaded to the future. Maybe it was just to radical with the E65...
other then: I think Mercedes design make the CLK much different to these photoshops.
the headlights might be drew as one shape and not splitted. That will only be the face of the new e-class. The trend will be edged singlecovers for the lights. Of course, the photoshop shows a Lexus GS-styled front...Mercedes will not copy any aspects, I'm sure. (In respect to own style and Lexus)
Oh, and I like the backdesign. only the c-pillar will not fit the elegance of it
