Yup: 2006 was the last year with supercharged (Kompressor) 5L V8.
It was something when I saw it...
My father daily drives his leased S550
and keeps the CLS as a garage queen.
I sometimes get to drive it haha.

I'm really thinking about getting a next CLS
as my next car after the 205.

There actually is a smoking hot Brabus Smart ForTwo out already.

Eat um up, white folks.

That you find something remote in time does not negative its gravity. Ask any Korean.

I'd be happy to try and help you join in. But I'm going to have to require your current and/or past vehicles as credentials



Lol, hey, we may be tadpoles now, but even the big fish started at the bottom just the same (well, most anyways)
Aww you're trying to attack me, that's cute I'll entertain you though, '06 E46 M3, '11 E92 335xi, '16 C300 4Matic.

Back on topic now, as MASSC450 and Mike5212 have both said, the quality and materials are pretty much identical in both, C300 and C450. Educate me on these "massive" differences in quality and material that the C450 has over the C300.

Technically since the 300 has the option for a heated steering wheel and ventilated seats, and also offers the same interior package with stitched dash, it is a better appointed car than the 450.
