It would seem like it...and the RL would be on par w/ the 7. But the CL and TL are practically the same size.
Wouldn't it make sense for BMW to have a 5 and 7 series coupe also?

yah i agree..i use to have a E36 model 325i and it is small and the new e46...3 series is smaller than E36 model..i can feel...5 series is a bit roomier but not as big as tls..i guess..so how do u feel..i have test driven a new E39 ..540i a year ago..it is powerful ...but the rear seats are a bit tight.....

Yes, in comparison to the 540, my CL-S does have longer overhangs, and similar if not a longer wheelbase . Albeit the overhand consists of largely empty space for aerodynamic purposes specially in the front. The rear overhang is just for the cosmetic rounder look (which I prefer).
Overall, the CL-S's dimensions are larger than the 540.
