As usual, my friends at MB world get the first look.

Tires will vary: MB uses Continentals, Pirellis, Michelins and Dunlops. Nobody wants to tie themselves to one tire supplier, you remember how much fun Ford had with Firestones.

Can I take a look? Our dealer is playing games with us, we've been waiting for 1 and 1/2 years for the new CLK cab.

When could I get one from you? At the earliest we are looking at a January build date

I want to at least see it in person!

I like the wood above the airbags in the rear...makes it more complete. Do the '04 coupes have this as well?

Sorry rjc,
Not trying ot be obtuse. The CLKcab came with Michelin pilots.

500AMG,
Good eye. I did not notice the back seat trim. I have not seen a '04 coupe yet, can't tell you.
