The CLC was a facelift wearing a new name: the C-Class Sports Coupé of 2001, given a fresh face in 2008 and sold for three more years alongside the entirely new W204.
Around 1,100 parts were changed, but the doors, roof and glasshouse remained those of the CL203 launched seven years earlier. Engines ran from the supercharged CLC 160 KOMPRESSOR to the 3.5-liter M272 of the CLC 350, with OM646 and OM642 CDI diesels beneath.
Production moved from Bremen to Juiz de Fora in Brazil and ended in 2011, when the C204 coupé took over.
