The 2009 CLC Sport Coupe
One of the most-coveted production models of Mercedes Benz is here. Fans are excitedly waiting for the 2009 CLC Sport Coupe, and when World car fans got a spy shot leaked all through the internet, people now know that is only a matter of time until the German carmaker unleashes its new tiger.
The C-Class 2-door is now given a badge as the “CLC Sport Coupe”, and is now ready to battle it out with BMW’s 1-Series in the arena of luxury sports cars. According to the report, Mercedes Benz made only minimal changes to the Sport Coupe. The car is still the new C-Class at heart. It echoes the same features that the new C-Class has, especially the front fascia. The interiors were said to be the same as well, because this way the Sport Coupe will be more affordable in the market. Some notable changes under the hood are to be expected though. For instance, the Sport Coupe will be using a powerful V6 powerplant. The specs are not up yet but this car will surely fare well once it is ready to come out in the market.
While many critics found the Sport Coupe to be a bit of a disappointment, many also fear that BMW might make a more interesting counter-attack. With the lack of fresh and new sellable innovations that the CLC Sport Coupe is expected to have, BMW might just make their fleet of 1-Series more interesting. Nevertheless, a Mercedes is still a Mercedes. Its power and excellence can never be outdone. Needless to say, let the people see for themselves first before judgment day comes.
