With the 53 in there I would assume price starts where CLS63 used to be?

That and the stack not being silver. Maybe it's configurable in different materials.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Is the 53 motor in this just the lower output V8 from the c63, or is it actually the straight 6 “hybrid”.

It's the straight 6 hybrid. A couple first drives have come out reviewing the 53 setup, zero lag. Basically feels like a 429hp big NA V8. I'm excited for it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I’m stoked to see yours when you get it for sure.
Gunna keep working in getting a CLS53 in the family in the meantime.

Honestly I'm underwhelmed. Styling is subjective, but that's a hot mess. It reminds me of the Panamera launch when it was obvious there were tying to shoe horn 911 styling onto a bigger car. Porsche learned their lesson and moved on. I've never been a fan of droopy-ass styling (CLS/ Audi S7), so I've got a bias.
I won't be in the market for this class of car - but if I was, I'd take the new Panamera shooting-brake thing or even the E63S over this.
Yea, my bias swings the other way. Love the 4 door coupe "droopy ass" look. A7/S7/RS7 is my favorite look of them all, GT 4 door might be my new favorite from pics so far.

It’s all going to depend how it drives. I am hoping for something special.
It needs to be much better than the E63S to make sense. Or at least a ton harder, e63s black series kind of concept.
I need some crazy to give up rwd.

At least one of the trim levels comes with the 4matic that can be converted to RWD.

E63S had this anyways.

As a child of the 70's (getting into cars in the 80s/90s) I had an overwhelming aversion/reaction to two of the worst automotive designs in history, the J30 and the CL. Since these were some of the original droopy-butt cars, I've just retained that aversion regardless of the actual vehicle.
Rear headroom is key for this style, if it’s too low then it might as wel be a 2 door (e coupe).
I felt I was too tall for the back of the second gen cls, for example and I am not a tall guy.

ya. It's amazing how much crossover MB has. They have refined their market segments to be quite granular. E coupe, S coupe, this thing, etc.
I like the style! Would have been nice if they flared the back like they did on the previous gen CLS63.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I'm sitting here wondering, if I were to get rid of mine, would I upgrade to that, or just move on to the AMG GT-R
In 2 years of ownership, I've had someone sit in the back on 2 occasions... Only other time using the back was when I was moving a bunch of stuff to Vancouver. lol
Sig was pwned by Moderator!
^ I'd wait for the Black Series...should be here end of this year i think.
Confirmed from AMG that the AMG gt sedan is getting a 43 model, lameeeeeee
Car has lost all appeal to me

Car lost appeal when the price tag came out haha. I guess I *could* afford a GT43 but it's Euro only.

I mean look at that illustration.
Also: if I had to change careers it would be to "Patent Filing Illustrator". I bet those guys get a pretty penny to do their crayon drawings. Always hilarious.
Edit: I saw a Model X driving down the road yesterday, and it always enrages me more than most Teslas do.
