The only thing I don't care for is the arch over the back tire. I'm sure the AMG version will look 2 times better.
It's still based on the E class chassis, in this case the W212.

I agree with you though, I like the current CLS more than the new one.

I don't see how Benz can top the current CLS....and what is up with this weird extra car arch over the rear wheels on their new cars....

That rear end is frumpy and saggy looking. Not liking this one at all
Current one is 10x better.

I have never said it before but currently, the best looking model from MB is the C 63amg class
