The CLK is probably one of the least sportiest cars in this class. It can be driven sporty and it will cope well, but it's the kind of car that is meant to be driven in a relaxed and stately manor. The Audi and BMW offerings in this class are sportier IMO.

Also, the prices for the current W204 shouldn't have risen much over the W203. In the hopes of maintaining competetiveness, I hope Mercedes prices this C400 right.

Thanks. No threat.

335si will have a power output in 330hp range - not even close to 408hp, don't you think?

V8 engines won't be offered in 3er - except in M3 version, yet with special M V8 engine.

C400 seems closer to RS4 & M3, than S4 / 335(s)i.

This HP war is going crazy.

Yet MB has always been a bit ahead with HP numbers lately ...
