2008 Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W204)
These pics are from an Auto Bild article which is written in German. From what I can gather they are photoshops. The car will have the new COMAND III control layout which is supposed to be similar to BMW iDrive or Audi MMC. It remains to be seen whether it will turn out any better than those two systems. Gasoline engine possibilities are the 3.5 liter V6 putting out 268 hp which has been introduced in the new SLK and will make its way across the entire lineup; a 2.5 liter V6 making 204 hp; a 3.0 liter V6 making 231 hp; and one or more versions of the Kompressor supercharged inline four. In Europe at least there will also be up to four diesel options: C180 CDI with 150 hp, C200 CDI with 177 hp, C230 CDI with 204 hp and 324 lb/ft, and C300 CDI with 218 hp and 376 lb/ft. I believe all but the C300 CDI are supposed to be four cylinder models. 4Matic all wheel drive will be offered, although most likely only on the C350 and C300 CDI. The C55 AMG will have its power bumped from 367 to 408 hp, and there may be a C63 AMG in the works. There may also be a C32 AMG CDI as a remote possibility.

I think those pictures are pretty old. I also found another picture from germancarfans forum which is very similar to CLS. It could be a PS'ed job from the CLS.
