C55 AMG
 
yes i just saw it today on AMGs website. not sure how long it has been on the sit5 but apparently they are coming out with a C class with the same 5.5 liter V8. i assume it would replace the C32. HP#s are at 367 not sure about the TQ but i figure it will be around 380 or so, about what the other N/A 5.5 liter AMGs make. thought you guys might find it interesting. if you havent already seen it.

that car looks nice. Good job to mercedes on this one. Im thinking they are making the wagon to go against the s4 wagon? just a thought

very nice indeed.
i presume there'll be a notable price hike to go with the change of engine?
that front nose looks alot 'droopier' than the C32.. i think i like it.
i prefer the new guage configuration too, and i notice the redline has been shifted 500rpm higher. 8)

okay so there is a face lift on the c class? any one knows about engine upgrades (like is the 350 from the ML350 going in) and the interior mods are so hot.
and whats the HP rating same as the CLK55?

They're also using the new face-lifted C-Class sedan for the 2004 season of DTM, replacing the CLK-DTM.
