New CLS replacement spotted - Page 3

It looks suspiciously like a reskin job a la CLC.

Basically the same car as before with new front and rear ends. Dare say the innards/electronics will be new E/S class but new body shell??---- I remain to be convinced.

Nice looking front!, but being a Photoshop mock up you cant rely on it looking like that.

Is that a Merc or a BatMobile ?

It has 4 wheels and a star on the front - anyone drawing further conclusions from these pictures obviously has better eyes than me...

The whole point of the cladding is to disguise it! What's proving difficult about understanding this?

KillerHERTZ · 11-01-2010, 03:03 PM

Flared arches front and rear, large rear lip leading from arch to arch, crease from behind the front wheel... and a star on the front

KillerHERTZ · 11-01-2010, 03:04 PM

Its the T-1000s car by the looks of it

But you can't be sure (and visually the clashing colours will throw you off too, like dazzle camo). Any of these features could just be built-up disguise.

The teasers help, obviously, but disguised car tea-reading is very hit and miss.

I got all of that from the teaser

- no doubt it will look nothing like that...

You seem to be taking more than a casual interest in the new CLS mate?

Are you saving your pennies?
