Mercedes-Benz 'CLS Class'




Mercedes S 450Things are looking good for Mercedes-Benz in every place but Canada. Sales are down and Mercedes is afraid of losing some valuable customers. Don’t worry though they always have a plan. They will be cutting down their prices on certain models during the holiday season by creating a Manufacturer’s Dealer Direct Incentives (MDDI).

Effective now, reductions of up to $10,000 are available across the model range. The CLS 550 offers up a $6,000 discount, while an S450 4Matic offers an $8,000 incentive. Customers after the legendary Mercedes Benz SL-Class models will benefit from a $10,000 incentive. In some circles, the SL makes a fantastic Christmas present.

2007 CLS-550The 2007 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class is a luxury sedan that was created to look like a coupe. The gorgeous styling comes at the expense of big-sedan practicality. The funny thing is, the CLS isn’t as expensive as it looks. We were surprised to learn that the CLS starts well under $70k. Considering the CLS’ unique styling, powerful engine, quiet ride, top-of-the line safety features and gadgets galore, people expected the base price to be well above $80k, more once you started piling on the options.

2007 CLSThe Mercedes CLS has usually been called one of the most beautifully crafted Mercedes-Benzes that they have made. It has the look of a coupe, yet it has four doors. And in terms of interior comfort, the CLS makes for a great four-passenger sedan.

The Mercedes CLS is roughly the same size as the E-Class sedan, with which it shares a number of major components. Yet the CLS-Class has fewer variants than the E-Class and it occupies a higher range on the price scale, with more standard luxury equipment. What distinguishes the CLS most readily from other Mercedes sedans is its four-seat cabin and gorgeous exterior styling. It comes in two varieties: powerful and crazy powerful.
