Replying to: merc1 (Oct 31, 2005 6:34 am) Does anyone know when exactly the CLS500 gets the new 382 hp engine? If a car is ordered now for delivery sometime in the new year, will it have the new engine?

Replying to: mssurrey (Nov 22, 2005 10:46 pm) Well the CLS500 will most definitiely become the CLS550 for the 2007 model year.   Since the S is the first to have this new engine I would exepect than any CLS models ordered past Feb-March 2006 will be the a 2007 model, just a guess.   M Replies to this message: mssurrey (Nov 23, 2005 6:22 pm) merc1 (Nov 25, 2005 12:12 pm) merc1 (Dec 15, 2005 7:41 pm) anthonyp (Nov 26, 2005 2:04 pm) merc1 (Nov 29, 2005 3:07 am)

Replying to: merc1 (Nov 23, 2005 1:52 pm) I assume that this also applies to the ML 500 as well ? Replies to this message: merc1 (Nov 25, 2005 12:12 pm) merc1 (Dec 15, 2005 7:41 pm)

Replying to: mssurrey (Nov 23, 2005 6:22 pm) I assume that this also applies to the ML 500 as well ?   Yep. All the "500" cars will become "550" cars for 2007. CLK, SL, CL, S, E, CLS, ML, R and the new "GL" will all get the new V8. There might be a "450" version of some of these running the smaller 4.6L V8 from the upcoming S450 (335hp), but that isn't clear.   M

Replying to: merc1 (Nov 23, 2005 1:52 pm) Well Merc the Audi has arrived and I know you like them along with Mercedes....They are really vastly different cars each with their fine differences..I got the sports suspension--a real gamble for me--and find it to be just what I hoped it would be...As you have said many times in the past, the feel of a car is so personal that words really can not convey what the feeling is..I can say that I do not really think any of the mmi-idrive-or mercedes`version are configured in a way to be worth the aggrivation of using them. I know there are alot of options but , so far , I don`t think all these selections are necessary or will be used that often, unless they program them so they have to be used each time you start the car. I would venture to say that the Lexus may not go this route....On the Audi I have begun to make headway undrestand the many functions so I am not coming from ignorance....I can hardly wait to be able to see the Mercedes in the flesh, and further to use the command setup..Tony Replies to this message: merc1 (Nov 29, 2005 3:07 am)

Replying to: anthonyp (Nov 26, 2005 2:04 pm) I'm really glad you've got your car! I hope it is everything you expected. I am surprised you got the sports suspension though. Can we get some pics on the Audi A8 thread?   M

Replying to: merc1 (Oct 31, 2005 6:34 am) Are there any plans for a 4matic CLS in the near future? Otherwise I need to have a separate winter car for Cleveland, OH. Replies to this message: merc1 (Nov 29, 2005 9:33 pm)

Replying to: oxford9 (Nov 29, 2005 7:03 am) Are there any plans for a 4matic CLS in the near future?   No CLS 4Matic models will be built according to everything ever said about the CLS.   M

It appears that for 2007 the E and CLS models will no longer use the SBC braking system. I didn't think Mercedes would spend the money to make such a running change, but apparently it is being incorporated with the facelift of the E-Class and since the CLS uses the same chassis it will also lose the electro-hydraulic brakes. Whoopie!   Article   Smart, but costly move.   M

Replying to: mssurrey (Nov 23, 2005 6:22 pm) I assume that this also applies to the ML 500 as well ?   In an earlier post I replied to this with a "yes" regarding the ML500 becoming the ML550 with the new 5.5L V8. However, Mercedes debuting the new GL with the new 4.6L 340hp V8 first which begs the question as to whether a ML450 will replace the ML500 or with they have both the ML450 and ML550 for 2007. I'm looking for the Detroit autoshow to provide some answers on this.   M
