As you can tell it's been a tremendously slow day for Mercedes news, but thankfully our good friend Eric sent us word of a story that finally brings the day's article drought to an end.
How the lucky British bastards over at Car magazine got their hands on the new Mercedes CL63 AMG less than a week after its official debut is beyond me, but somehow, they managed to do it.

While going through our inbox this afternoon, a reader by the name of Michael tipped us off to what are reportedly the first photos of the upcoming 2008 Mercedes C-Class.
