Words John Clark January 28, 2013

The new four-door coupe is being called a style rebel.  It takes the majority of its design cues from the CLS four-door coupe, whose design concept has inspired imitators from nearly all other competing car brands since its world debut in Detroit ten years ago in 2003.

But enough about the design, see for yourself in the photo gallery below.  Looking for technical specs and the equipment list, continue scrolling for an easy to read quick reference guide.
