Benz thought the "edgy" style of the C could cross into their top class. They are sadly misguided. The C looks OK, because it's not overdone. But this? No.

Maybe Mercedes is trying to keep up with Cadillac

Looks like they were trying a bit too hard with this one. Current model is excellent.

I'd take a CLS or S-Class anyday of the week. Those cars are amazing! I'd rather the old SL-65 over this new one.

I like the C-Class and S-Class and am disgusted by the CL and SL as someone said a few posts above. For the SL it kinda looks like if they changed the headlights some and reduced the size of the upper grill, and changed that weird looking exhaust tip surround in the rear, it would look pretty nice.
