Exclamation The new C classes

According to the latest Road and Track, the new C class sedan (very, very nice looking BTW) will be out in 07, the CLK coupe in 08 and the cab in 09. R&T did not specify if the years were calander or MY's. The CLK pic was of a cabriolet and seemed to be right on with the renderings posted here. The CLK 55 goes to 400hp.

There will also be a CLS 65!

Can someone scan the article for all to see?
