W203 C-Class
I think the projector head lights really does make the CLK look more aggressive, and give it more presence on the road. Wish they had borrowed the E-Class center console for the interior instead of the C-Class though.
btw, thanks for sharing the pics

I agree with you about the pipes, it stuck out straight away. If spending all that money designing and building a decent car, why, why not finish it off properly?
Still a huge fan of it otherwise.

The bonus on the 55 models is that they are going to have buttoms on the steering wheel to allow up and down shift motion.

C-Class
we have a 6-speed (sequentronic) gearbox avalible in the W211 e-class, c-class and the upcoming SL350 (here with shift-pedals behind the steering-wheel) but the automatic is better imo.
