Where's pre-production pics of E55k?

The W211 EClass debut was in January and on sale in Europe in March. The CLK debut was in February and the CLK55 AMG has pictures, specs and prices already to go on sale in Europe. Where in the Hell are the E55k AMG pictures?

I just got the latest Car and Driver mag and they had a quick review on the W211 E class and stated that the AMG model won't be due out until later next year (2003)-probably about 1 1/2 years so you wont get any info on the website yet. Does anybody else have any concrete info??

'01 CLK 55
I'm hearing the same for the CLK 55....Mid '03 as an "04 model...Let them "Continentals" deal with the teething problems first, as we're considered warranty/imperfection "crybabies" over here.... At least that's what I was told by the ex-Qavale Mangusta quality control manager's pre delivery bodyshop.

E55 KEV,

To agree with everyone else, my best conjecture is that the E55K AMG isn't coming out until next year as a 2004, while the CLK55 AMG (no supercharger) is being immediately released (well, not exactly...September or October in Europe, maybe) with the rest of the new CLK range. So therefore the information on the new E55 isn't available yet.

My best guess.
