C230k == Cl230 == Clk230!
The MB C230 Kompressor Sports Coupe is commonly referred to as the C230K, but when you go to order it, is classified as a CL230.
So if its a CL230, and a Kompressor, isn't it really a CLK230?
More importantly, if it were a CLK, would the current C-class owners still consider it a poor man's MB?
I feel another "hot topic" coming on, gotta put on my shades!

Speaking of "poor man's MB", they sell CLK200K in Europe (along with E240, S320 etc.) - how about those?

The "K" in CLK refers to the german word for short. Therefore a CLK is a "shorter CL." Similarly for the SLK.

K for Kompact (dont know exact german spelling). IIRC, SLK is Sport-Licht-Kompact (sport,light,compact)

Not CL230 - it's CL203. This is the coupe's chassis designation (W203 for C Class sedans).

For example, the price of the C32 in Taiwan is as much as the S500 in US.
