A few more pics, taken from autoexpress site:






I don't like this car at all, b/c I don't like the CLS too much to begin with, and even more, I love the E class state so much I don't have eyes for any other wagon

Regards!

The CLS Shooting Brake will debut at Goodwood Festival of Speed (June 28 - July 1) 2012.

Would make sense as the SB concept was also introduced at the Goodwood Festival of Speed (in 2011):

Looks like the US design patent lists the creators?

I'm sorry, but that isn't the production model. I made the same mistake a few months ago and then quickly realized it was the Beijing concept. Most M-B concepts have their German patents filed around the date of release unlike production models, so this being filed on March 24, 2010 and the design cues point to it being the Shooting Break Concept. See what I mean here, then compare the spy photos back to back.

It resembles the shape of the A4 Avant which is a killer in the looks department. I think it will look brilliant.

I wonder what the CLS shooting break would look like with a traditional grille and a three pointed star on the hood?

Saw this on MB facebook page...Is it about Shooting break?

Would they make such a fuzz over a SB version of the CLS, which is already out? Weird. But maybe.

Don't get this car. Hope it never sets foot in the US. A $80k + wagon.

$80k plus wagon... E55/65, RS6...

You could also be right. Maybe its the MLC, the X6 rival.

A very balanced, yet dynamic and striking car. Well done to Mercedes-Benz and I can't wait to see further official pictures.

The photos are made in Italy, non Germany. Tuscany land, and marble quarries of Carrara.
