One of our spy
photographers caught the upcoming, all-new and almost undisguised
Mercedes-Benz C-class Sport Coupe out in the open in Sourthern Germany
undergoing some road testing. The current model underwent a facelift in
2004 and is rapidly approaching its end of shelf life.
The
Mercedes C-Class Sport Coupe almost got axed but thanks to new Daimler
boss Zetsche the sport coupé has been revived and will be making it to
the Mercedes-Benz range in 2008. The styling is completely new but the
underpinnings are based on the current C-Class platform, just as it was
in the previous generation too. The C-Sport Coupé will have to compete
against some strong and established rivals, namely the BMW 1 Series
Coupe and the Audi A3 amongst others.
