Are You Practical, Sensible Or Out To Make A Statement?
As far as Mercedes is concerned, the CLS class is a “4 door coupé” and that is that.
After all, they argue, with its ultra sexy sloping coupé like profile, what else can you call it?
Whatever one calls it, when you’re right in front of it you realize that Mercedes has done it again, creating a vehicle that others will find it difficult to match.
Based on the Mercedes E class, the CLS class was created with the intention of offering the comfort and luxury of a sedan with the sporty feel of a coupé.
I say that I believe that they did however there are a few shortcomings.
The doors for example are not as large as a sedan.
Second, the rear seats are no place for tall adults even with the extra legroom provided.
This said, those that fell in love with it, either the CLS 550 or the CLS 63AMG, seem to be all too forgiving about these “small oversights”.
If you’re after practicality and sensibility, get an E class.
If you want to make a statement the CLS is for you is what they would say. I strongly agree.
Whichever way you lean, you should take a test drive to cmare them at one of the Dallas Mercedes-Benz Dealerships
