New feature on MY05

I just found out that the MY05 CLK500's will have the gear shift buttons on the back of the steering wheel!!!! I don't understand why they would do this and make it that much harder to sell the 55! With this info. in mind, I just might change my order the the 500 Cab. instead, unless they plan on making the 55 a Kompressor , then I will stick with the AMG. I will have to inquiry to the "Powers that Be" & see if there is anything I am missing for the MY05 CLK55.

P.S.

DVD Navi. will be on the MY05 CLK's, just incase anyone did not already know.

You know, I am not 100% that the 350 will be in the US Market next year. The only reason I say this is because our ordering bank still says CLK320, not 350.

DTMCLK,

From the information I have, that will not be the case. In fact, I check our allocation and as of right now, there is no May or June production for the CLK's yet. Not sure why that is, but I will keep everyone updated as I find out.

CLS350
So do these F1 style shifters really work well? or are they just a manual way to change gears? What i mean is do they fair well against BMW's SMG transmission?

No, you cannot retrofit the New DVD NAV on older CLK since it is also MODE connected.
