The C hasn't grown that large, it is just the same size as the 124 E. The E is what has grown so much. Once my Black 500E finally gets finished I will get my dealer to loan me a C63 and I will do a photo shoot with the two together.

I guess they leave it up to the driver to deal the wood out to their passenger in the back seat.

I mean arent they supposed to come out mid April?

That one is probably still in the process of being built. The dealer said in the questions area that it will arrive in April.

I have the last 4 digits of the price. Anybody can lend me the reminder?

The CL63 has been out for a few months now. Even late '07 perhaps.

As for the CLS, I just found out a bit back that it is based on the E Class chassis. That little S at the end tended to suggest otherwise.

When I was looking for my new car, the gray market dealer showroom floor had one of each and it looked like the same leg room in each so the next time I visited I brought my measuring stick. Leg and head room in the back and front only differed by 1/4 to 1/2 an inch between the CLS and E. Seating between the 2 was 4 in the CLS (due to these unpopular buckets in the back) and 5 in the E. Price difference between the 2 with basically all the same options on each) the CLS 350 was priced about 35,000 USD above the E280.
