I love ivory on mango blue. It's my favorite spec combo on AMGs.

Keep the wide body but dump the vents and airducts and apply glossy metallic paint...and I could really get on board with this (were I in that particular market). That would apply to the coupe as well.

I just love that shot of the front shark nose of the CLE, it looks fantastic in that blue.

There was one other there that stood out.

CLE facelift with I6/AMG V8 and with the interior of the GLC EV would make this a dream car.

This car with the rims of the black car would be perfect.

If I was in the market for a convertible, I think the CLE53 is a better buy than a SL43 or even upcoming SL53. It is much cheaper, has 4 seats and looks nicer and even the interior is not inferior to the SL. With the FL coming for both cars I would be interested to see if Mercedes changes the SL interior vastly to distance it further from the CLE.

I doubt the interior changes that much tbh.
I would hope that Mercedes has drummed up and entirely new and less screeny interior design paradigm for their next generation of post-Wagner cars.

Literally everyone reviewing these cars laments the screen overload.

My most ardent wish directed at M-B/AMG design departments:

Make wider tracks and organically, seemlessly integrated wider bodies the main, if not sole, distinguishing exterior design features for higher performance offerings. Banish the applied, afterthought tinnef.

Less can be so much more.

That depends entirely on the application.
Motorsports derived and adjacent cars will have the aero because they need it, irrespective of whether you think it looks "too much" or not.

And in such instances, you're not really the target market.

That depends entirely on the application.

But of course.

The interior if FAR inferior to an SL.
