CLK differences - USA models vs. Euro models

What are the differences between CLKs that are sold in the USA and in Europe (for example, between CLK 320 Coupes)? In the official web sites I can not find any dramatic differences. USA does not seem to have Avantgarde and in America options are sold as packages...

As far as I can see, these differences do not have any effect on safety or pollution. However, I have noticed that it is impossible - or at least very difficult - to get a CoC (Certificate of Conformity) that would allow me buying a CLK in Europe and bringing it to the USA. If I buy the car in the USA, getting the CoC for Europe is not a problem at all.

The background for this question is that I will be moving to the USA. When moving back to Europe, it would be smart to bring a new CLK with me. If there are critical differences in between USA and Euro models I have to be forward thinking when buying the car.
