The car looks good but I'm sure the price tag is a whole lot of different story.

Thanks for the write-up and the pictures. Brings back good memories.

There are some wonderful enhancements that they do there. Unfortunately, when I asked about Performance Studio work, AMG firmly stated that they will not do any modifications to a U.S. spec car.

So, unfortunately, it appears that all we can do, here in the States, is press our nose to the glass and dream.

it looks more aggressive yet more refined from the front. I wish they had a carbon fiber or pano glass roof like the M3 or the other MB's.

I believe the word on the street is that the only way C-class coupes will be available in the US, Black series included, is with a pano glass roof. Because that's the only roof type MB has crash tested and had DOT-certified.

CLK AMG BLACK SERIES (among other German things)

Yes you only have a glass roof in the states ( and yes unfortunately Performance Studio will not touch U.S cars ). Price here will be around 120 000 GBP before options though .
