E55 AMG Black on Carlsson 1/6 EVO
Dam, went by the dealership today to take a look at the New C Class 2005 the Kompressor looks like a C32 so do the C320 sport. Can't really tell the difference anymore between a AMG C32 and a regular KOMP.... Kinda sucks but owell... I still will dust those wanna be AMG C230 and C320. All 2005 C classes all have clear headlight lenses too, I think Bi xenon is still extra.

4 wheeled car.
clowns, mercedes doesn't photoshop. They're not a mexican car company. They do the same photoshoots, same location, different cars. Like the US/Euro spec CLK. It's not the same car, just same location, lightning etc. The reason all looks so similar is because these are professional photographers, no Juan y Julios.

You are flat out wrong. They photoshop and so do manyother car manufactures. Sure they can afford to reshoot a car when needed, but professioanl graphic designers can do a similar job in a day.

From what i've seen, all the new W203's that have the AMG bodykit are the same as the C32, but the C55 front spoiler looks much different than my C32's spoiler. It looks a little thicker, the air vent looks wider & higher and the fogs are different. Anyone else notice this? Even with this i still think they are too similar.

all 2005 W203 sports sedans will have the C32 AMG Body kit, but to differentiate a 2005 W203 AMG (C55) from the rest of the crowd is it will now sport the CLK55 front end.. a more slanted nose, the grill will no longer be attached to the hood, the front bumper is more w209-ish then a C32 bumper. and of course the rounded foglights.

The lower bumper facia is different and more in line with the shape of the SL in that the pocket opening for the fog lights and surronding grill takes on a more square shape than the current oval/tappered shape as it intersects the side return into the wheel well.
