Photo Comparison - BMW Gran Coupe vs. 2012 Mercedes-Benz CLS

[Leica]

One of the toughest competition of the BMW Gran Coupe in the 4 door coupe segment is the 2012 Mercedes-Benz CLS. The 6 Series Gran Coupe has an elegant, luxurious, sleek yet sporty design that is loved by many. It has actually been greenlighted for production and is expected to be released in 2013. Before the BMW 6 Series Gran Coupe is revealed next year, lets take a look at a photo comparison by BMW Blog. You be the judge which is the better designed car.

Very close match....... the Gran Coupe looks more articulate from the rear, but the CLS has better overall sleekness.

CLS looks more elegant and finesse but GC gives a more muscular and imposing stance.

The sloping back and rear of the CLS somehow gives me an impression of those American cars like Grand Am or something like that.

i think BMW wins this round... the merc looks droopy

BMW wins......a longer and sleeker version of the F10, great potential for tuners to come up with aggressive body kits.

The merc looks hunchback, the overall shape is quite similar to the current CLS which i think is yucksssss

front view: merc wins
rear view: bmw edge out a little bit
side view: bmw wins

over all, bmw wins!

I think BMW wins hands down and underwear down this time. Good thing they got rid of Bangle.

The CLS looks hideous to me. Front look like Decepticon, its rear look like...well excuse me but...Vagina.
