And they still continue to call it by an oxymoronic phrase.

Not only do they not have any head room, but they don't really stylisically benefit from it. This car is still bland, just lower and shorter bland.

The CLS is still uglier than the E-class... what is the point?

Now if they actually looked completely cool, as the Aston Martin Rapide does, I could see giving up a little rear head room and practicality for a car that I can't walk away from without walking backwards. :D]]>Jan 13th 2008 2:42PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/13/detroit-2008-volkswagen-unveils-the-passat-cc/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/13/detroit-2008-volkswagen-unveils-the-passat-cc/Jan 13th 2008 2:27PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/13/detroit-2008-volkswagen-unveils-the-passat-cc/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/13/detroit-2008-volkswagen-unveils-the-passat-cc/Jan 13th 2008 9:46PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/13/detroit-2008-volkswagen-unveils-the-passat-cc/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/01/13/detroit-2008-volkswagen-unveils-the-passat-cc/
I can only hope that they'll have a diesel version in Canada, but that's not too likely...]]>Jan 13th 2008 2:28PM
