I love the CLK, can't understand why it costs $10k more than a C350/Sport. It's built on the same chassis and has two less doors.

advans, you have anymore pics of this? I'd be curious about how it looks at different angles. Overall, it's very creative and I actually don't mind the wing based on how it looks on the picture, but a different pic would determine how out of place it is for sure.

'04 Mars Red C230K Sport Coupe (not Coup-EH)
I'm wondering if this is a custom job (most likely) or a kit. I know that there was one by Renntech (I think) awhile back, but it looked nothing like this. I like the skirts and the fenders, though the lower bumper just means it will be a pain turning in to parking lots and garages. I've been wanting a widebody for the coupe, and this looks the closest to what I'd like. This one really should lose the wing, though. Maybe something more subtle.

And I agree. More pics!

i'm currently hunting down for more pics!, the owner only posted up one pic on his cardomain website,

renntech had a widebody kit that look a little like the DTMs, but I believe Vollstream!? or w/e its called, came out with something similar.

The rear spoiler LOOKS pretty cool from this angle, I remember I saw a Red C230 Kompressor Coupe in Toronto possibly 2 years back with GOLD EMBLEMS and a HUGE rice pipe and a black/gold rice wing...I was driving my W163 at that time, I wanted to run that guys car over...oh man what was HE THINKING!

cl203 Sports Coupe
wow....drool:::thats a sick job...i mean it might look ricey but at least its a GOOD ricey car....at least he didn't make a Mercedes look bad, but made it look awesome and unique, Like everyone else, i wanna see more angles of this coupe. Something that i would get one mine as well except for the wing. but the wing does work for the rest of the body so i guess its ok. but not for me.

when i first got my car, i wanted to get a widebody kit, wanted to make my car look "DTM" but lol...

on the other hand, that kinda spoiler, on a stock coupe, your gonna get ur @SS kicked lol, a renntech or the lorinser prototype one works good.

My faux pas. I was out looking a CLK's this afternoon and must have bumped my head. C and CLK are built on the same chassis 106.9" and the CLK does cost 10k more. Can't understand why.
