2012 SLK Vid

Forgive me if this has been posted but there is an almost laughable, if it weren't so bad, video up on the A'bild site. Forget about that fact that it's all in French on a German site or the auto-erotic nature of the content, the car itself is fugly and already looks dated before it's release. Particularly compared to my beloved 35is...

Strike that.. it's on C&D

It's nowhere near as bad as you say. Besides, it looks like a rough edit. A 3 minute version will probably be shown at the unveiling.

.. i just watched it again on the C&D site... nope it's still ugly.

The french dubbing is not very good that's for sure. I stopped after three minutes because I was tired of seeing close-ups of that actor. I am sure that over the span of the first three minutes there was at least 2.5 minutes of close-ups of the actor.

From the little we've seen of the new SLK it does not look that good. The F1-inspired hood is gone.
