Question Re: Hot news - a CL55 convertible for 2003!

For the US market? I, for one, would not hold my breath. That rumor has been out for almost two years. The cost to certify such a car for our market is enormous. I get a call a week from clients wanting to place an order because they read something about a CL Cab. I'd say it's more likely with the new MY06 C219 CL-Class body, if at all. ...RAB
