New C class

I did a search, not sure if this is a repost, but 2 pics of the new C class from autospies.

looks very CLS like.... below is some info i cut and pasted


Details are beginning to trickle out of Stuttgart on the 2008 Mercedes-Benz C-class. Drawing design cues from the next S-class (due next year), the third-generation C-class—seen above in an artist’s interpretation of spy photos—will ditch the four round headlamps and conservative sheetmetal of the current car in search of more dynamic and daring styling. First up to bat in spring 2007 will be the sedan, followed by a five-door wagon that fall. A softtop convertible and a coupe debut in 2008.

Like the exterior, the interior will be completely redesigned. Of note is the updated Comand system, which will incorporate a center controller similar to those of rivals BMW and Audi in their iDrive and MMI systems.

Engines for the United States are likely to include 2.5-, 3.0-, and 3.5-liter V-6s, all mated to either a six-speed manual or a six- or seven-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive will remain an option for all C-class models.

The obligatory AMG version will be powered by a 408-hp, 5.5-liter V-8. Also possible is a limited-edition, 476-hp C63 AMG, which would compete with the likes of the Audi RS4.
