Based on history and DNA you are probably correct. On the other hand the W205 has the potential to be both a little lighter and significantly more powerful than the current car. My guess is that their benchmark (to beat) is there own 507 model today. It's going to be a quick car.

Fully agree. They just need to swallow the pill and make the DCT a standard AMG feature. There is hope since the CL/A 45 have a DCT though these models obviously share nothing in the way of drivetrain with the rest of the lineup, and even the non-AMG models get a DCT.
