2003 CL55
CL55 Production for US

How many CL55's were produced/sold for 2003, and 2004 model years? Also, any information about 2005's would be helpful. Reason for the question is to understand the supply side of the supply/demand situation. Seems like there is soft demand for the car, despite its obvious advantages over other cars, including newer models from MB and others, including the BMW 6 Series, which is not necessarily comparable. The CL55's performance, design, luxury, advanced saftey features, relative exclusivity and value in the secondary market leave me puzzled about the reasons for the weak market for the CL55. Perhaps there are a lot more out there than anyone first estimated.

Secondary market.... I think it has to do with the very high maintenance and repair costs.

As far as I know the CL has been a big hit for MB. Especially compared to the S class coupe of yore.
