Because soon enough, they're going to run into the 220 number range

but seriously, i did some searching and couldn't find anything

and how do people feel about thew new E coupe!?

and with a blutech would it be an E300C Diesel?
or a 300ECD, or dare they name it a CD, think it could live up to the name?

W212's come out in 2010 model year when W211's cease production.

Thanks!

I've been wondering, I kinda like the "square" headlights on it again.

It would simply be called the E350 Bluetec Coupe.

I don't like how they extended the roof line of the W212 coupe to almost the end of the trunk line, it gives the side profile an almost hatchback look. I don't even like the little pillar at the rear window, that one little pillar seems to go against the whole pillarless coupe look that MB has maintained for decades.
