New 2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK550 Coupe Review The Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class is a rare blend of style, luxury and sporty performance. It is available in both coupe and convertible body styles, with a tastefully appointed interior and an impressive array of comfort and safety features. The rear-wheel drive CLK-Class is comprised of two models: the CLK350 and the CLK550. The CLK350 is outfitted with a 268-hp 3.5-liter V6 engine, while the CLK550 gets a more powerful 382-hp 5.5-liter V8. Both engines are mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission with TouchShift manual shift control, and CLK550 models feature steering-wheel mounted shift paddles (optional on the CLK350). The CLK350 is equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery and automatic climate control, while CLK550 models add a sport suspension, rear lip spoiler and 18-inch alloy wheels with performance tires. Standard safety features on all CLK-Class models include anti-lock disc brakes with brake assist, stability and traction control systems, front side-impact airbags, overhead curtain airbags for front and rear passengers (coupes only) and active anti-whiplash front head restraints. For 2009, the Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class carries over with minimal changes to standard equipment and available options. Heated front seats and a glovebox-mounted 6-disc CD changer with MP3 capability are now standard on all models. The CLK is a juicy source of profits for Mercedes-Benz. It\'s marginally cheaper to produce than an identically equipped C-class sedan-with which the CLK shares its underpinnings-and yet it sells for about $10, 000 more. That math finally has caught on with the competition. For example, the upcoming Audi A5 coupe/convertible is based on the A4, the two-door BMW 3-series cars will be priced more like a theoretical 4-series, and the second-generation Lexus SC will be GS-based but positioned between the GS and the LS. There is no doubt that the increased competition will cut into the CLK\'s market share pie. In response, Mercedes plans to fortify the next CLK with several advanced technologies currently found in the S-class, including Presafe II, night vision, Comand II, and the Distronic Plus adaptive cruise control system. Mercedes also will treat the CLK to all-new styling when the third-generation model is introduced in the summer of 2009.
