any changes for the 06' C55?
I assumed that the 7-speed gearbox would find its way in there. I test drove the SLK55 and thought the extra gears helped make better use of the engine's power. The mbusa website only have 05' cars...Anyone know of any changes?

The all new C-class AMG will probably be here as an 08' model making about 420ish hp...
