I saw an "ML420" a while back. Also an "MLK320", possibly a tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.?

Actually MB does make a CLK 240, I have seen them in the Asian market. Never knew they sold it in the USA.

They come with the aluminium interior trim, Avant Garde badging and none or semi-powered seats.

Yes I can read that just fine...

Just thought I'd point out an interesting fact about the crappy CLK240 MB has in the market (which drives and performs just like a C240) for almost double the price.

FYI: They also market such trims as E180 and S320 in other parts of the world and (..sigh..) outfit most of their models with a manual tranny.

goldenbuddha:

I dont know what CLK240 you've seen..But over here they are all Fully Loaded..ie. Heated Seats, Xenon, Parktronic, 6cd, rear shade, comand (on 50%), full power seats, wood wheel (This is like standard here), phone, and all the other goodies.

Friend of mine bought one with extras such as Keyless. At the dealers it was a special order car with special options. So CLK240's here have more than what you got in 500's there. Trust me.

Also, MB doesnt care what engine size you have. All the options that are available in the higher engines are available in the lower range engines. Just not as standard.

As for price. The CLK240 Fully loaded costs about 5000USD more

Thanks,

The badging for the C line is probably sold with the letters CLK and the model designation numbers. You take off only the lettering you need. After accident repairs some body shops do not realize this and put the entire badge on the car. Just my take on it.

I saw a W202 CLK320 KOMPRESSOR once.

I don't know why people do that. It doesn't impress people that don't know Mercedes cars very well (as the letters on the back don't mean crap to them). It only makes people who do know Mercedes cars think you're an idiot.
