I've yet to read an actual 1/4 mile time as well, however based on the 1/4 mile times of the new e-55 12.5, and the sl55 13.0, I tend to believe that the new clk is an n/a engine rather than supercharged and should run a 1/4 mile no faster than the previous 208 model. I've asked the question hoping that maybe someone might have some insight as to wether or not the new car is quicker, because mb is charging $20k more for a 209.
