SPIED: Mysterious Mercedes-Benz GLK Caught Roaming SoCal

Most of the time it is reasonably easy to tell what's going on when you see a prototype undergoing testing. This time, not the case.

Thanks to AutoSpies resident spy snapper, Fred Khaz, we've got some peculiar shots of what appears to be a GLK-Class undergoing some testing in SoCal. And, it is sportin' some light camo.

Now here's the question of the day: what the hell is it?

Since there isn't anything really standing out to me besides the light camo and what appear to be slightly revised lamellas -- chrome grill inserts -- I would wager that this could be the GLK with the new six-cylinder powerplant racking up some miles.

If there is anything that MB does well these days, it is definitely rack up millions of miles on a product before letting any buyers get a hold of it.

What say you, Spies? What do you make of the mysterious GLK?

The GLK looks like nothing like a Subaru Forrester. These silly comments about a car looking like this car because of a similar side profile outline are downright silly.

You only think the comments are silly because you have your love goggles on.

that is not camo. They aren't even covering up entire parts of the panels. Why camo only part of a bumper.
