I am just curious - Why won't Mercedes-Benz put the supercharger in the CLK55?

if so, it will be the fastest car.

Like JLee said, it would be so fast that it would show up the flagship models. They can't let that happen.Originally Posted by JLee81

It still doesnt make sense to me. Why would thhis car's performance figures influence buyers of another market sector?
I mean, if I wanted a luxurious coupe, then i would simply go for the CL65. Why would a CLK55's performance change my mind? Its no where close to teh luxury and class of a CL!
And same goes for other models, If i wanted a super roadster, I would go for SL. Why would a CLK change that? Or even a supercharged SLK55 for that matter?
They are totally different cars!

man.. if this car has a s/c, that means it will be faster than E55, S55, SL55,
SLK55, C55(they wouldn't do it on this because of lower price), CL55!!
The hp weight ratio will simply the up on top and the gearing, if remains the same will be the fastest among all. Then it will rob some of customers from higher end cars. If you run MB, would you like this to happen?
