The GLC looks good but I'm going to miss the squared off styling of the GLK.

I wouldn't be surprised if the price moves up slightly to differentiate it a bit more from the GLA.

I wonder if we will see a GLC400 and perhaps a GLC450 AMG.

The thing I liked the most about the GLK was that diesel engine being their base engine/model.  Now they replace it with a turbo 4 gas engine.  Only way they can charge the same amount or more for base model in my mind is if they add a bunch of standard features.  That being said, I'm a big fan of this design, inside and out.

The interior especially is a huge improvement. A friend had a '10 GLK and the interior was cheap (and cramped).

I am not super feeling it...maybe it will look better in black! Good thing MB will keep the price under check, as this is expected to cost the same as the GLK.

Rumours persist they may even make a GLC63.  Considering there are already uber horsepower full and mid sized SUV's, I guess the logical next move is to make uber horsepower compact SUVs.

And then a high po Coupe-UV version.

Yeah, I'm not thrilled with the price bump, nor the 2.0T instead of the 2.1D as the base engine.

I also think the hood looks long, but the interior is great, as is the standard kit.

I'd love to test drive one - I really liked the GLK350 (never drove the 250).

At this point we're really just speculating about the price bump. It does seem like it has quite a bit more standard equipment now, though.
