Well, at least it should look better than the upside-down-banana first-gen CLS...
 
If they call this GT 4, that's going to be a bit of an awkward naming situation against their supposed upcoming GT4 race car.

Porsche probably won't allow Mercedes to use "GT 4", not after what happened with Aston Martin using GT3 on a road car (for what is now the Vantage GT12).

I don't know how Porsche can claim it, since Lotus used it first on the Esprit?
 
I hate to encourage Mercedes bizarre naming conventions, but as this is based off the E/CLS chassis (as @Eunos_Cosmo accurately predicted), I figured a dedicated thread made more sense for the sedan.

On a more personal note, as a big fan of the coupe, I just don't want to sully its good name. :P

(But really, I actually do like this more than the frumpy CLS, and think it's a worthy Panamera competitor. Better? Dunno. But worthy nonetheless.)
 
I want to know who were the high profile customers, that kept saying, "Me and my millionaire friends, would buy AMG GTs. If only it had 4 doors.".
