Mercedes-Benz CLS Sedan Dead after August 31

The stylish sedan is on the way out, with no replacement on the horizon.

So sad to me. Each generation was beautiful. It obviously started this whole fake coupe thing. The AMG 63/63S in the last gen is sensational.

Theh made the third gen and it’s like it didn’t exist. They invested in the 4 door AMG GT 4 door but it’s Waaaay more expensive.

So sad to me…. even 4 door coupes dying 😩😩

They perfected the design with this:

The latest ones were boring in comparison.

Sad to see it go, but seemed like an afterthought in the latest iteration.

My view is probably in the minority here, but as far as I'm concerned, good riddance. I have never been a fan of sedans, with humpback-whale rooflines, trying to be 4-door coupes. Sedans were meant to have headroom in the rear seat.

Kinda crazy how the 1st gen A7, 2nd gen CLS, and 6GC all got succeeded by less stylish (and therefore less successful) models with the 2nd gen A7, 3rd gen CLS, and 8GC.
