#117 of 441 Info by merc1 Apr 18, 2005 (8:47 pm)
No tests of the CLK350 yet and no pricing for the 2006 C either, not yet. Look for all of this in May/June timeframe. The automags should have their first drive of the CLK in their June issues and the roadtests of the C350/280 should appear in the June/July issues of most magazines.   The cars will be on the lots by then, at least the C-Class should be.   M
#118 of 441 Re: stroudman [merc1] - c280 availability by ikramerica Apr 19, 2005 (9:38 am)
Replying to: merc1 (Apr 15, 2005 5:39 pm) Thanks. I hope they do. But Euro Delivery of a 4matic takes up to 4 months from order date, then up to another 6 weeks for California delivery.   That could be over 5 months before I get my car! Now, it I could order the thing now, I could have it by October at the latest. But if they make me wait until June with the C350, or even later, to order the car because it isn't "on sale" yet (even though they are making them now, most likely), that would push me back to November or later...
#119 of 441 More 2006 CLK Info.... by merc1 Apr 21, 2005 (1:55 am)
A little more info on the 2006 CLK:   http://www.germancarfans.com/news.cfm/newsid/2050421.004     Looks good to me!   M
#120 of 441 Merc1 - SL colors by scott1256 Apr 22, 2005 (8:06 am)
I see the SL is available this year in silver with a red interior.   This traditional MB color combination caught my eye when I saw it on a 300 SL years ago.   I have not yet seen a car with this color combination - have you?

Replying to: scott1256 (Apr 22, 2005 8:06 am) brilliant silver w/ berry red has always been available, it's just not very popular, b/c it's a special order only combo. Replies to this message: merc1 (Apr 26, 2005 9:02 pm) stroudman (Apr 28, 2005 1:15 pm) merc1 (Apr 28, 2005 3:01 pm)

Replying to: stroudman (Apr 22, 2005 11:09 am) I see someone on the Prices Paid board has driven a S350, I'm assuming they've arrived? Any interest in them, if you have some in?   M Replies to this message: stroudman (Apr 28, 2005 1:15 pm) merc1 (Apr 28, 2005 3:01 pm)

Replying to: merc1 (Apr 26, 2005 9:02 pm) some of the big markets have their first one by now I'm sure. Ours is due in 2-3 weeks, and I can't wait. You probably already knew this, but it caught me by suprise - the engine is the 3.7 liter from the old ML350, not the new 3.5 liter. Makes sense, since that car is only new to us, not Europe. That is going to be one cool car IMO. Replies to this message: merc1 (Apr 28, 2005 3:01 pm)

I guess a 268hp V6 is too close to the 275hp V8 of the S430. More importantly we'll get the new S350 with the new V6 it seems otherwise I don't see why they'd bother giving us an S350 so late in the current S-Class' model run.   M

#126 of 441 Merc1 - Mercedes needs you in management. by scott1256 Apr 29, 2005 (11:23 am)
The Wall St Journal reports today that Mercedes lost $1.23 billion in the first quarter.   In my opinion you understand what Mercedes stands for and what its cars should be. Current Daimler management seems to be adrift in this regard.   My favorite German and American car marques (Mercedes and GM) have lost over $2 billion between them in the last quarter - hard to believe.
