The Mercedes-Benz CLK-Series debuted in its current form in 2003. That year, the CLK coupe was released, and the convertible came out in 2004. Why do editors at TheCarConnection.com bother to fill you in on this history? Because the 2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class may be the last model year for this generation of CLK. Experts at TheCarConnection.com know that an all-new CLK Coupe will break cover late in 2008 as a 2009 model, with the cabriolet coming as a 2010 model.
