    Here's a thought: CLS Wagon? (It does have some similiar lines...)

    That is nice. I don't usually like Mercs but for that (and the CLS) I make an exception!! It's also good to see Mercedes committing to the wagon/estate type body where everywhere else the MPV seems to be killing it off. That is one sweet ride.

    Wow that 'gunmetal grey' colour is real nice!! They should make that available on other Mercs. I also like those rims on this AMG.

    Worlds fastest MPV eh

    Are these out yet? The normal version...not the AMG? I saw a car that looked alot like that today, and I thought "wow, what is that? Must be a new A-Class with some extra stuff on it".

    But now that I look at these pics it looked like this model.

    ^^ Now that's just stoopid. Looks like a bigger version of the original A-Class.

    Agreed.

    to this and Mercedes' desire to plug every market niche imaginable no matter what the cost to the brand.

    I'm pretty sure that was it! Or maybe I'm going crazy! I don't really know the small Mercs.
