My Take: Close, but no cigar. I don’t like any of these leases this month. The CL550 tries, but falls way short. The rest of the lineup doesn’t even bother to look appealing. At this price, I’d rather have the E550. Speaking which, I love that car. I just don’t have $60k to play around with, otherwise, I’d be rolling in a E-Class coupe right now.
