Does MBUSA think the lack of package availability pushes the CL600 buyer into the CL65 ? I don't think so.
I doubt they believe that. However I do believe Mercedes is under the impression that it's potential buyers will be willing to put up the extra cash for the sports package. I know I would! No package, no benz!!

The CL is a very nice looking car but not in silver.

But even with the extra cash, the sports package is unavailable on the CL600.

That's a damn shame, I honestly didn't know that! In that case I guess your right, Mercedes must be trying to get potential CL600 buyers into CL63's.
