New CL Body since 2007 Significant Change

Wondering if anyone has heard of when MB will make a significant change to the CL. Last significant change was in '07. I've heard from some people that they release a new one every 7 yrs.

Has anyone else heard anything?

The 11s are still the same body shape. No significant changes yet...only minor.

Yeah its a refresh i guess. It is still 216 but the majority of the body panels are different and the motor is all new. Have you seen one in person? To me, it is totally different especially the 63/65. You cant really tell in the pictures but the nose is pointed to an almost triangle shape.

Yeah I've seen and sat in a new one. Definitely agree with the changes but it's not one of those "significant" changes MB does, like it did when it went from 06 to 07...

My SA told me this. I believe since the CL runs the same body style as the S class they should release the new bodystyle the same year.
