Contemplating a three pointed star on the bonnet as it's all part of the Mercedes charm for me, but may not look right with the sport grille ![scratchchin](/inc/images/scratchchin.gif)
Just replace the star grille with the luxury grille. The AMG pack w/luxury grille was an option (in Germany at least), and is the purist look. I would definitely not use a bonnet star with the sport grille...![scratchchin](/inc/images/scratchchin.gif)
This is my 2012 CLS350CDI AMG with 40k miles. Only had it for a month but loving how comfy it is and how much torque the engine has. It was a £54k car new and i got it for £19k so pretty happy!

Yeah very fancy I'm sure, but not economical though is it?? eh?? ![wink](/inc/images/wink.gif)
Seriously though very nice. I think it was one of these I had a bit of a drag race with once on a private road in my 996GT2 and one of the only cars that really stretched its legs a bit -- short shifting at over three figure speeds as pulling up towards it, but only just and still had to work the throttle a lot.

I took my kids to school the other day...drove it like a hearse and averaged 21mpg over 30 miles on A roads. The mpg is not for the faint hearted ![hehe](/inc/images/hehe.gif)
Very impressive performance for a passenger car though! And I doubt the MPG is a surprise/disappointment, they were never sold for that as I recall ![hehe](/inc/images/hehe.gif)
