Nice! But I think the whole silver color car thing has been done to death. Can they not come up with other colors?

depends on what age group they're targeting. going with a burnt orange $100,000 car isn't going to fly so well.

I think I heard the CLS500 will be about 65k, and the CLS55 at about 90k.

Acura TL and RL, Audi A6 and A8, BMW 5 and 7 series, Cadillac CTS and STS, and Infiniti M45 sport, to name just a few that look better.

I saw it at the Auto Show this past weekend here in Reno, looks pretty good in person, the sticker price on it was $125k... I have to say though, if I had that kind of money to throw down for a car, it would not be on this one

Amazingly there are multiple $100k + orange colored cars in my parking garage. Thankfully none of them are burnt orange but are more like Grabber Orange.

Those headlights are terrible. Everything else looks great. I love the sideview. I just don't understand what is up with all the luxo's and this huge notch in the side that has been carved out. Acura started it.
