Bought a New Benz!

Hey everyone, just thought I would share some pictures of my new to me Black 2006 CLK500 Coupe. I had been on the search for the perfect CLK for almost a year now and I finally found the perfect one that met all my requirements and I just had to get it. I plan on still staying active on the w203 forum considering I still have 2 w203s. If you would like too follow my modding and progression of my CLK I have made a build thread for it, the link is located in my signature. https://mbworld.org/forums/clk-class...ml#post5407677
and the pics:

I guess that variety isn't the spice of life after all.
I'm curious what you'll be doing with all three?

Well the sedan is still in the shop currently because of the recent accident it was involved in. After I get it back I will probably keep it for another month or two and spend that time fully converting it back to stock and selling the aftermarket parts off it. Once its fully back to stock maybe one last road trip in it and then sell it. Keeping the C230 coupe though but will probably put less time into modding that for now and mainly put time into the CLK for now

Car is a CPO so it came with the whole 1 year 100K warranty, I bought the 3 year 120K extension though. When I saw the dealer plate it reminded me of your C55 haha. I just called your shop an hour ago about some audio work actually

I like the class look of it how it is, but I know the mod bugs going to bit me pretty hard soon enough

I original was leaning towards a m278 but most of the CLK550s I was looking at was running in the 28-30K area, this car was a lot more reasonably priced for me. Plus when this came up with everything I wanted and in the same exterior and interior color I wanted I just had to jump on it

if that was the price difference than it wasn't worth it, but now you can possibly save up and opt for a kleemann supercharger...LOL

Or at least headers at a minimum, the M113 sings pretty good when you pull the sock out of her mouth
