There is no facelift for 2006. They are available to order now. I have not seen any in lots yet.

I would think best chance for tweek is 07 lineup......Most models will have gone to new S Class lighting style and E will be way out of line with look of all other models. Not saying I agree, just seems to make sense.

I hope the Mid Model Update (aka Facelift) comes for 2007 along with the 6.3 liter motor. Love to see a 2007 E63 AMG with 510HP.

As far as I know the change in 07 will be more than a facelift. It will be a W212. Is this what you all have heard? I'm sure that it won't be a complete departure from the W211 as it was with the W210 since the CLS is based on the current W211 and I would think they wouldn't introduce a new model then completely change it after only 2 model years.

I doubt that the W211 chassis will be discontined after only 4 years of service - from 2003 to 2006. W212 will probably happen as a 2009 Model year - that is a 6 year run for the W211.
