I picked uncool...

The wheel archs are to pumped out to look elegant.

The rims look to small for the car.

im sure it looks good on the inside but id rather the CLS63 AMG <--- that to me is the hottest looking merc sedan or what ever to come out of Germany other then the CGT !

it's a merc (some minus points) and the styling is fugly (more minus points)

so it's uncool. come on AMG can do better then that :x

It is a boat. A large GT. The AMG package doesn't make it any better, nor is it really necessary for such a car. Way over done. That is like having a Sport Version of the RR Phantom or Bentley Brookland.

"Uncool"

If only were it more elegant and more subtle... uncool.

At least those cars are insanely brash yet somehow poised and elegant.

Uncool - Looks like a bar of soap to me. Depreciates like a stone. Waste of money IMO :roll:

I thinks it's very cool. But not as cool as w126 coupe or c215 body.

cool for me. I saw new cl on car show and liked it very much for a mercedes-benz. But still I don't think I would buy when I had enough money.

It's a borderline cool car. It's not the best-looking, but it's the vibe.
