New C CLass Coupe.....ugh

ianbiz · 01-28-2008, 12:19 AM

The new C sedan is a great car, but the C coupe is straight up garbage.

sinnet112 · 01-28-2008, 02:08 AM

Figured someone would mention rediculouslyballin/benzesjagssomethingsomething hahah...he'll probably call it the most timeless and classic design ever and it being Mercedes's benchmark design for years to come.

I doubt this thing will make it to the USA, as Americans do NOT like hatchbacks and they do not sell well here.

my gf has this car lol, it is a very common car for women.

Are you kidding me? I've seen mebbe one...no...make that ZERO girls driving the C class coupe (w203). A common car for a girl is a Jetta or a Civic.

Yes, they want us to buy BMWs.

x5love · 01-28-2008, 04:01 AM

Honestly though... yes we're all BMW fans and hate Mercedes by default... but I am legitimately in shock by this car...

Same underpinnings as then previous gen?

No new interior?

A rear that ugly?

I repeat, SAME DAMN UNDERPINNINGS AS PREVIOUS VERSION?

I thought Mercedes at least had respect for itself!

I'm in just as much shock and awe as you too...

m0n0x!de · 01-28-2008, 04:25 AM

Year's_End · 01-28-2008, 04:52 AM

Found some more ugly ass pictures for you guys

Year's_End · 01-28-2008, 04:57 AM

New ugly things worth mentioning:

-Bland seats
-Round mirrors on a mostly sharply-edged car
-Front lower air dam waaaay too long
-General lack of flow and consistency all around
-Generic ugly rear end recalls that of a Sebring/Lincoln/LS
-LED top brakelight recalls that of a Caddy
-Rear diffuser and exhaust look like an afterthought
-Chrome side strips and bump strip still? I thought cars were done with these nowadays...

Yeah...it's not looking too pretty.

HEY32G · 01-31-2008, 12:03 AM

I bet they're losing sleep in Munich tonight after this news!!

Los Angeles · 01-31-2008, 01:12 AM

This car would be nice if it were shaped like a coupe and not a hatch.

+1. I've only seen women driving it. Same with the Volkswagen EOS.

There's just certain cars that scream ''girly''.

Others would include the infamous Jetta, SLK, Celica, etc.

out4scrilla · 01-31-2008, 01:48 AM

its not that bad idk about the rear but it the new c class front is

Crimson92 · 01-31-2008, 10:53 AM

aww damnit not again....wasnt the first one ugly enough

Corsis · 01-31-2008, 11:03 AM

Ok i take it back after seeing the interior shots and the rear. This thing is horrible. The front is aggressive like the new C class sedan and i like that, but thats about it.

BMWJZ4 · 01-31-2008, 01:10 PM

ughh gross..didn't they make this mistake the first time

Year's_End · 01-31-2008, 07:16 PM

Good news, apparently it's not being sold in the US!
