2007 CLK550

MSRP TBA
Engine5.5L 32-valve V-8 engine
Net Power382 hp @ 6,000 rpm
Net Torque391 lb-ft @ 2,800 - 4,800 rpm

Engine 5,461-cc DOHC 32-valve V-8. High-pressure die-cast alloy cylinder block. Alloy heads.

Net power 382 hp @ 6,000 rpmNet torque 391 lb-ft @ 2,800 - 4,800 rpmCompression ratio 10.7:1Fuel requirement Premium unleaded
gasoline, 91 pump octane.Fuel and ignition system Integrated sequential multipoint fuel injection and ignition includes
individual cylinder control of fuel spray, spark timing/phase, and antiknock. Electronic throttle. One high-energy ignition
coil and spark plug per cylinder, with 100,000-mile spark plug intervals.
Intake system Dual overhead camshafts with continuously variable intake and exhaust timing. Magnesium 2-stage resonance
intake manifold increases intake runner length at lower rpm for improved response. Electropneumatic turbulence flaps at start
of intake path help increase intake airflow speed at midrange rpm for greater air-fuel mixture swirling and stronger, more
complete combustion.
Transmission Driver adaptive 7-speed automatic. Electronically controlled shifting. Driver-adaptive programming adjusts
shifts points to the driver's current driving style. Touch Shift allows the driver to manually downshift and allows upshifts
by nudging the shift lever left or right from the Drive position. Shift into Optimum Gear programming allows one-touch
selection of the best gear for maximum acceleration or engine braking by holding the shift lever to the left of Drive for one
second. Driver-selectable Comfort mode starts the vehicle moving in 2nd gear or a second Reverse gear, and upshifts at lower
rpm, to help improve control on slippery surfaces.
Drive configuration Rear-wheel drive.
Rear axle ratio 2.65:1

nice, good luck to all those ordering, it sounds great with that new engine!

 

Base price for the CLK550 coupe is $54,900 and the CLK550 Cabriolet is $62,900.

 

Wow! A month ago I started talking to the dealer about a Euro delivery of a CLK550 in September. We've been waiting on the details of the '07s so we could place an order. I was very pleased to hear of the larger engine in the '07 and was expecting a bit of a price jump because of it. But, if these prices are correct, the price went down as the base for the '06 CLK500 was a little change over $63k. When I was chatting with my Sales rep today, she said she'd have prices on Monday, so I reckon I'll find out soon

 

Net Power382 hp @ 6,000 rpm
Net Torque391 lb-ft @ 2,800 - 4,800 rpm

Wow, I really like the numbers on the CLK550. Any idea what the weight of this car will be? Under 3600 lbs?

 

Per MBUSA, the Cabrio is 3965lbs and the Coupe 3720lbs.

Why is it that the german mercedes always have more horsepower then the american versions. For instance the new clk 500 (german version got 388 horsepower the american only 381. Does anybody know why? Also we have to use a higher Octan gas then you guys do. The american only requires 91 ours need at least 95!

 

Probably due to different methods of rating horsepower -- or it could just be paper advertising numbers.

 

I wish they sold 95 octane around here. All I can get is 93 but I use a NOS Octane Booster which is supposed to bring me to around 100 Octane. Good stuff.

 

you can get 100 Octane at almost every gas station overhere pfpfp

 

maybe that could be it. but i am still wondering why we not suppose to get less that 95 Octane. maybe there is a lil' difference in the engine?

 

Does the new CLK550 weigh more than the 2003-05 CLK55??
If its basically the same car, then why is the 0-60mph only 5.1. With all the extra horses shouldn't it be at least as fast as the CLK55?

 

it probably is, I bet they (mb) can't say it is b/c then it is beating some of the amg cars on paper and I believe the 55 is still being sold / available

 

The 55 models are history, worldwide.

The different hp numbers is just conversion from German DIN to SAE, not an actual difference in power.

My point is not about horsepower...its about published 0-60 times. How convienent its 5.1sec and not less. I would bet dollars to doughnuts it is faster than the CLK55 but they are not allowed to say it. Imagine how pissed the AMG guys would be. A non AMG car in the same class is beating them. It kinda sucks. Thats why I feel they should've waited for the new body style to introduce all these new motors. ....550.....63...etc. Then it would seem to make more sense.

 

a 2.65 gear? any new colors?

 

I seriously doubt it has anything to do with the old CLK55, MB's numbers are always conservative. As for waiting for the new body that is years away and the CLK500 was being overpowered.

I wouldn't get mad if the 550 was faster. I'll just take out a 2nd mortgage and buy a $16K Renntech S/C to bring her car up to 460 hp. Problem solved.....j/k (in case wifey's reading this thread). LOL!
