Vader and Oggle, that is the interior of the currant in the showroom C230 and C320 Sport Sedans. The regular C240 and C320 get some wood.
KEV do you guesstimate that the 05 will be sometime spring of this year?!!! i hope so i love the new changes!!

2004.5 C230 Sport Sedan
2004 C320 Sport Sedan

basically the C55 will get the same steering wheel with more aggressive thumb grip (as pictured in the first page). BUT I think that is the C55 steering wheel because of the shift button on the back of the steering wheel. Don't know if that'll be standard for all future C-class or not.

the update for the C-class is to MB's preparation to fight the next 3-series which will probably come in just a little more than a year.

FrankW, you are right. Thanks for pointing that out. I had not noticed the AMG styled steering wheel shifters. It must be an C55 interior?

2003 C32 AMG
It can't be a C55 interior. look at the window switches on the door. only 2. The C55 should have 4 window switches. Also the gauges dont have the white round inserts like the picture of the close up of the amg gauges on Jesmb.de

I know it has the speedshift buttons on this picture, but maybe the coupe is going to get that tranny too, or this picture is just preproduction.

That first pic of the facelifted C is a C-Class Coupe, hence the two window buttons:

Okay...

I'm beginning to think that this "C55" doesn't exist!

Every damn time I see "new" pics of this interior and exterior they FREAKIN' CHANGE! Does anyone really know what this car looks like or is it some little nerd on his computer making for a really good paintshop pic!

If you actually LOOK at threads in this forum you'll find them in the first thread of the page.

That's my frustation I guess. I'm finding different pics of the C55 in this thread and many other threads and another forum. I was kinda excited too but it just seems different pics keep popping up and I was really hoping that in the month of February, that MB was going to release more accurate info on the C55 but it doesn't look like this is going to happen. ??

Okay, I take all that back!

Damn! I just now got off the phone with my salesguy at MB! I ordered a C32 back in January and I called to follow up on it just now. He said he got a letter back from MB telling him they are no longer making the C32 b/c they will be putting the C55 into production!

Holy Cow! It's happening! I can't even type I'm so excited!

So anyway, the sales guy is calling me back to get more info on the C55 as he said he doesn't have much info on it and doesn't even have pricing.

Damn! I didn't want to wait until Sept. for a C55 so if I do have to wait, I'm thinking about getting the E55 but saving a little more and just buying it instead of leasing - which is what I was going to do with the C32.
