Hello USA,

I will take delivery of my new baby CLK55 with new amg package at end of june in Sindelfingen.
I can proudly say that worldwide I will be the first one to own one.
Of course pictures will follow.
New goodies are now standard mp3 player in combination with cd-changer.
Tv- tuner with analog and digital transceiver. Also Command APS DVD Navigation in combination with tv.tune can now play DVD movies!! Yes that
is true.

I have fully loaded the car expect keyless go and distronic.
keyless go is not a go because of freuent malfunction and
distronic because I am driving an amg55clk and not a grandfather auto.

My home board ist carpassion.com or motor-talk.de or the
amg-owners-club.org.

what does the facelift look like? any spy pics?

Co 55 AMG

Welcome! Can not wait to see photos!
Rock On!!!!

Isn't the new look just a smaller grill with three chrome strips instead of four?

RJ55AMG

Yah that and it has round fog lights instead of oval ones.. and the backlights are a little different. Other than that it looks pretty much the same

gerritg

Thank you for all the congratulation.
I have been driving since 1998 always CLK. Since now
I have driven about 3 of them.

'I just love the design.

nlpamg

woah, that looks great, thanks for the pics. it's sharper and more C55-ish and even CLS-ish... more pics please!

MBH

Yeh, thanks for those pics. I had no idea the grill and fog lights were new for the '06CLK.

x-tian-230k

ohhh those fog lights are sexy...front bumper looks more agressive too!

RJ55AMG

Christian:

What's the difference between the current Bumper and the 06 one? I'm probably gonna facelift my car when the new parts are available and I figured I'd only have to change the Front Grille (3 Bars instead of 4), Fog Lamps (Circular w/ Chrome trim) and Mesh Bumper Inserts around the Fog Lamps... and the Tail Lights as well. If I'm gonna have to change the entire front bumper it may not be worth it.

MBAMGPWR

those round fogs look sweet...I really dig them!

x-tian-230k

Rafi, the front mesh grill is larger and more square...Looks more aggressive!

CLK430

Did the interior change at all??? or does it still look like a C-Class interior

Stiggs

Can you post a pic of the front, head-on. Instead of the side view.
Thanks


Its usually not too long after a mid-line facelift that the total redesign comes.....correct?
