The latest info I got from MBUSA was on 12/22 or 12/23.... I should have written the date on it.

"For model year 2005, MBUSA will offer 3 new vehicles, the E320 CDI Diesel and the two most powerful AMG's to date - the CL65 AMG coupe and the SL65 AMG roadster."

The Model Year 2005 E320 diesel will debut in Spring 2004 as a 45 state vehicle. Because of the sulphur content, it won't be a 50 state car until 2007.

No ETA on the AMG's except that ordering of the CL will begin this month followed by the SL in early 2004 with initial deliveries next summer....

If any wants me to email them a copy of the 2 page letter, let me know at aufever@prodigy.net

I am also assuming it will be the 320, no size is given except the model #. Our 190E was 2.3..... not 1.9 like in Europe. They do list the hp @ 201 and torque @ 369 lb.ft if that helps.
