I think Mercedes is waiting until the new engines are in production to team the C350 (or whatever it becomes) with a manual. I don't want the enthusiasts to write off the C350 because it didn't offer a manual until 2009.

Marcus, check this out:
First Drive: 2008 Mercedes-Benz C350 Sport - AutoSpies Auto News
This is what caught my eye...
That 2005 C350 sprinted to 60 mph in an impressive 5.5 seconds. The new C350 Sport is propelled by the same 3.5-liter DOHC 24-valve V-6 as its predecessor, with identical output (268 horsepower, 258 pound-feet of torque), mated to the same seven-speed automatic transmission.
Looks like those 268-horsepower are just fine and dandy.
