Does 2009 CLK 350 coupe come with HID XENON headlights?

Hey all, this is my first post and I'm a couple days away from owning my own brand new 2009 CLK 350 coupe. I'm just looking around online and not finding a clear answer on this?

Are HID headlights standard on CLK 350's or are they an optional feature that only some cars have? This is a pic of the exact car I'm looking at and it's unclear if it does or not. I can't go look at the car btw, I'm in Vancouver and the car is in Seattle, so if I drive down, I'm buying it for sure, I would just like a definitive answer on this.

Thanks

Yup...about 6 months after I bought mine 2006 Clk 500 cabriolet. I thought about trade mine 2001 CL 55 and 2006 Clk 500 cabriolet for a new CLK 63 Cabriolet but dealers I went to see the new Clk 63 cabriolet and non of the 3 cars I saw has the HID headlight options. . To tell you the truth, all 3 cars look so cheaper without the HID headlight. Usually the end of the year model get alot of the "options" as standard so they can sell it agaisnt the new updated models like the new E-coupe.

i agree, all benz should have xenons standard. that makes sense my 09 clk550 had almost all of the options except for like 2, which was the parktronic and keyless go..i dont care for keyless go..but the partronic, i cant live with out.. my s500 has the parktronic and parallel parkign was soo easy.. im tryin to figure out how to add it on my car

Thanks guys, that's the definitive answer I needed.

NO HID is a dealbreaker for me, I guess I'm gonna have to keep looking for my CLK350.

Thanks a lot for the offer, I really appreciate it. But I just gave them a call today and it doesn't have HID.
