Default CL cabrio pics

check this out, a CL carbio. its done pretty good but i hate that Merc is actually gonna make this soon. A CL should stay a coupe and not have a cabrio in the lineup, it just looks funny. agree or disagree?

i think it looks funny. the back looks too long with the top down, like a CLK with elephantitis.

WTF is with the hood when it is down!! In fact, when it is up it looks odd! If you kind of ignore the hood, then it is a nice car.

it isnt a photoshop, just some idiot that got his CL worked on into a cabrio. i hope benz changes their minds, not that i can afford one but i certainly dont want to see this nice car ruined by a cabrio version.

every since crystler bought mercedes they have started to introduce more trendy cars. so i wouldn't count this out as a non production run off.

for sure! A good one, I must admint (altough the car looks like shit). If you look at it closely, you can see that the back isn't the same silver shade as the front. And when the hood is up, it's very obvious it's photochopped!

guys, this isn't a photoshop...at least to my eyes. I've done a LOT of photoshop (much more than what I posted in my thread in the car gallery forum), and I've seen professional level stuff, and this isn't photochopped. It's real. the silver in the front looks a bit different cause of the lighting, not cause it's fake. And the interior shot looks too realistic. The shot with the top up looks photoshopped cause the dark roof is blending in with the dark background (the bushes). My guess is that this car is a one-off prototype from mercedes, just to see if they could do it, and if this isnt the case, it's prolly some real righ guy wanting a unique car...

lol you're both 1/2 wrong they merged. Diamler-Benz merged with Chrysler, thus creating Diamler-Chrysler.

lol but i do agree with the "they have started to introduce more trendy cars" part!

I think it's custom made, not a Photoshop...but Mercedes did have plans to make a CL Convertible.
