05 versus 03 CLK55 exhaust manifold... Are they different?
I hadn't heard that there was any change, and I know that the power rating is the same, but yet the exhaust manifold in the picture of the 05 brochure (The one where it is glowing red hot) looks different from mine (An 03), albeit the picture is taken from an angle that I had never seen before. Anyone have any ideas?
Best regards,
Matt

seems to be some confusion about this. I heard someone else mention the 05 CLK55 will have dual exhaust - from the pics it doesn't, but not sure why they changed the manifold -
Will the 2005.5's have the 7g tranny? If yes, maybe they changed the manifold so it will fit?

From what I gathered,
05+ CLK55 coupe have quad exhaust w/ new 6 pot front brake systems
05+ CLK55 cabriolet have twin exhaust on one side. w/ new 6 pot front brake systems,
pre 05 CLK55 coupe and cabriolet have twin exhaust on one side and C32 front brake systems
