Mercedes-Benz CL-Class (C216)
The Mercedes-Benz C216 is the last generation for the grand tourer Mercedes-Benz CL-Class. It replaced the C215 platform. In 2014 it was replaced by the C217 S-Class Coupe.
Initial release (2006-)
Like its predecessors, the C216 has no B-pillar interrupting the sleek curve of the side windows. The C216 body was designed by Gorden Wagener and Peter Pfeiffer.
The chassis is based on the W221 S-Class. The two-door coupé weighs 2,045 kg (4,508 lb), being heavier than the equivalent S saloon, and rides on a full-size 116.3-inch wheelbase (albeit 8.2 inches less than the long wheelbase S-Class, which is the only S-Class sold in the U.S.). Despite its large size, rear seat legroom is limited in keeping in the tradition of 2+2 luxury coupés, though CL has more rear passenger space than its rivals. The CL's boot is as large as that of the Audi A8 flagship saloon.
The vehicle was unveiled in 2006 Paris Motor Show, followed by 28th Bangkok International Motor Show (in right-handed drive configuration).

Mercedes Benz
by: Say YesBack in my review, still a picture perfect you
Slow down so I can see, who my passenger should be
Lovely your style of light, bought you beauty into my sight
Knew my direction and follow the girl in the Mercedes Benz
Chorus:
Didn't car how far she'd go, tank full, top down, come on lets roll
Had a girl she was great but I changed direction,
Cause the girl in the Benz was my destination
(Repeat)
Drove around for a little while, I guess you could say I was following her now
Pulled up to a big old house, she signaled to me to get on out
She said I know you think your slick,
but ain't nothing' coming near me if I don't go near it
I guess you could imagine it now and me and the girl in the Mercedes Benz
Chorus (x 3)
Nothing against the Jags, Nothing against the Rolls
Nothing against the fords or the Chevy's but I got to have the Benz
Nothing against the Cads, Nothing against the Lex
Don't really matter what your running in I gotta have the girl in the Mercedes Benz
