[motormaniac]

This is one of the few convertibles that's better looking than the coupe.

I don't like the new CLK coupe except for the front view. The rear is like a rip-off of the Acura CL, and I don't like its roof line, and thus its side profile.

Without the roof, it makes the new CLK convertible looks pretty good.
However,almost any soft-top convertible looks terrible with its top up.

[motormaniac]

this is a very very nice car, however it looks quite bulky with the roof down

[motorhead]

it is bulky even in coupe form and the 3 series cabrio looks way better

[motormaniac]

i disagree,

my opinion
