here are the first official pics of the new C55 AMG, and the C-class facelift. the new instruments look like my VW passat ones, but also very good. the new (e-class based) clima-control is also very nice. and the new bigger DVD-Navigation (with MP3) is well known from the S, and CL since Nov.03.










The sportcoupe will get rearlight with white stripes. The C55 burns 367 HP und 510 NM on the road.













all cars will have SL-style LED break- and backlights, this might be an interesting upgrade for current c-class owners!

what do you think of the changes?

merry chrismas, Felix

I must say, new interior looks sharp... I don't know about those exterior shots tho, seems fishy still. The grille looks terrible imo and why is it that the C-wagon has the elevated headlamp washer while the "C55" has the flush integrated washers like the new SL?

367 hp? Doesn't seem like an incredible jump from the C32, but maybe it's got a flatter torque curve or something?

Looks/ sounds like a good set of improvements. The revised instrument cluster removes one of my issues with the current Cs. Will these be the real 2004.5s?

Big improvement on the rear lights for the coupe over the current styling.

coppermine

Very sharp looking interior, but does anyone know when they will be at the dealers?

I hope steve can swap those 2004.5 parts to our current c class, esp the DVD nag and climate control. Steve, you have any words or info about this? Thanks

I will like to see the improvement on the suspension/ handling , I will care less about the look.

wouldn't mind having that new cluster and the tail lights for the coupe.

It looks sweet

The DVD COMAND uses the MOST protocol on the fiber optic loop. Our cars use D2B. The DVD COMAND won't work unless MB modifies it to work on D2B. Since MOST is where MB is going, I doubt that there will be a DVD COMAND that can be retro-fitted to D2B cars.

I guess I am getting new tail lights...those are hot!

The interiors....ewwwwwww....are they UGLY! Very modern looking, not classy enough...and the buttons on the wheels...very Lexusish.

I dont like like the instrament cluster at all! Everything else looks GREAT though! .

So this is OFFICIAL? I cant wait to see it in person!

Looks like the front bumper of the coupe gets a lift as well.

That front bumper is neither the current stock version or the amg version offered.
