As you may remember, back in November spy photos emerged showcasing what appeared to be the new 2010 Mercedes E-Class Coupe in hard-top convertible form. It’s now January, and it appears Mercedes has instead opted to take the more conventional soft-top approach, as evidenced by these latest Mercedes E-Class cabrio shots.

Seeing it without any camouflage, I must admit that I really like the new design. Maybe its my imagination, but I feel like the altered rear roof line and the added surface area created by the folding roof compartment make the back end of the vehicle much more appealing. I’d even go so far as to say that of any of the new E-Class designs, either coupe or sedan, this is my favorite.

Obviously I’ll reserve final judgment until the model’s official unveiling, but as of now, I think it’s a fantastic improvement over the outgoing CLK. To see the new Mercedes E-Class Cabrio and judge for yourself, keep scrolling for a few additional photos (click any to enlarge), then head over to GlobalMotors.net where you can check out the entire, action-packed gallery.

And to Andrus: many thanks for the tip; we sincerely appreciate it.
