What's new in 2007 model

Does anyone know of any changes to the 2007 cabriolet? Any new "stuff"? I've seen pictures of the centre console where there's now a slide open compartment.

good question.

I don’t know about Australia, but in the US;

The 475 HP/465 lb.-ft 6.2 liter in the CLK63 AMG replaces last year’s 362 HP 5.5 liter in the CLK55.

The 382 HP/391 lb-ft 5.5 liter V8 in the CLK550 replaces last year’s 302 HP 5 liter CLK500.

For the CLK350 and 550, there is a sports package available. The sport package has 10-spoke 17” wheels, shorter springs, sport shocks, cross drilled discs, and brake calipers with the Mercedes-Benz script. The interior has black ash wood, black carpets, and the instrument cluster has white gauges.

I got a response from MB Australia and they tell me that there are no changes to the specifications and that usually they make changes mid year.

Weird as my current CLK had extra fruit during Jan build.

Oh well, I'll have to wait and see.

The stuff mentioned by Marcus we get as part of the Avantgarde + Sports pack although you can order each separately.
