Only four short years after the CLK debuted in the States, Mercedes-Benz is set to deliver an all-new coupe, and we think it's bigger, better and badder than the outgoing car in every way-except, perhaps, its looks. Granted, the changes to the CLK's skin are subtle, but Mercedes added 1.5 inches in height and 2.7 inches in length, and the result is a CLK that looks a little stubbier than the current car. Like we said, the change is subtle and may actually mask how much has changed. For example, the list of available features is long, start-ing with a host of electronic toys like Parktronic distance sensors, Distronic cruise control and Brake Assist. The CLK also gets a handsome interior redo, with a nicely laid-out console much like the forthcoming new E-Class.
