Mercedes W140 Coupe

With some W140 coupes (500SEC, 600SEC, CL500, CL600) hovering around $10,000, they are quite affordable. Every time I see one, I'm reminded of my strong belief that it is the ugliest Mercedes ever made.
It looks big (in a bad way), unruly, and blunt. There is zero sophistication.

What I dislike most about the W140 coupe is the thick black gap that separates the trunk lid from the rest of the rear end. It looks crude.

Which class is classier?

  1. I actually like the W215 Coupe a lot more. It has a smoother styling. 2001-2002 models are starting to show up in the $15,000 range on Ebay motors.

  2. I drive a W140 coupe and it's a truly amazing car. I also think its beautiful and I turn plenty of head driving it.
