Power looks great, and I cant be mad at that, but the looks??? My goodness. Aftermarket is suppose to make your car look better, I rather have a stock CLS55 than this. Rims(like what everyone else pointed out) are the first thing to go, get rid of that ugly grill, and the entire front bumper, then we might have a great looking car.

For a "coupe", I'll take the M6 over the CLS55.

I do think the CL looks way better than the CLS though & the back seats are more comfortable.
