That's the new Inspiration edition. It is very nice. Also, the wheels are the ML500 wheels, which are much better than the normal 350 wheels. If it wasn't inspiration edition, it wouldn't have any of the things you pointed out. No silver grill, no white stitching, no black wood.

I just dropped off my E for service and they gave me a Black C230K. Not as bad as I had expected... definitely a different feel than my E.

Quite recently. There is talk about the 350 engine being put in the rest of the MB line, but i read germancarfans.com and the report claimed that the 2004 CLK cabrio will still come with a 320 engine.
