I didn't get it at first. It's more like "Kiss me, I'm a Mercedes put under a spell" (like a prince turned into a frog).

Remember the old tale? Kiss the ugly frog, and it turns into a price? They are saying that the 997 is the ugly frog, and the CLS 55 AMG is the price.

Regardless of whether they're poking fun or not, it's flattering that they blew that much ad space on a large pic of a 997.

Not really funny ... but yeah, the CLS pwnz (for lack of better words) the 997 when it comes to styling!
Cocky, though. Wouldn't make me buy a CLS.

Didn't Porsche create/engineer the first generation E500 for MB? What is up with this?
