For those who has driven the 55 or even the V12 benz, the new 55 kompressor combined with its new tranny is a wholenother world.

Not sure I like where Mercedes is going with the new taillight design. What happened to our familiar horizontal lines/ridges? Did the Honda Accord coupe use all of them up?

That's what I personally like, are the classic features of MB such as ridged tail lamps. But alas, it seems those are now long gone.

And I will still state I really love the CLS even since day one, and the 55 is like a bonus. But, please.....no tan interior :p
