Mercedes-Benz ConceptFASCINATION To Debut At Paris, Preview New E-Class
Is the Mercedes-Benz ConceptFASCINATION, set to debut at the Paris Motor Show, a concept version of a car we're not going to get? Let's run down the list: German? Check. Shooting brake? Check. Diesel-powered? Check? Stupid name? Check. Yes, this fanciful look at a two-door wagon is but a wild way of previewing the lines of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class and teasing hatch fans everywhere, though we hope we're wrong. Powered by the same small diesel mill found in the Mercedes C250 CDI BlueEFFICIENCY Prime, the concept features a humidor, refrigerated compartment and an interior inspired by equestrianism. It just goes to show that you can bring an equestrian-themed concept shooting brake to an auto show, but you can't make an automaker build it. Press release below the jump. More » -

As if the original Lagonda doesn't appear long enough, the addition of the D and E pillars and the negative rake of the hatch area gives the feeling of football field length. More »
