2005 Clk 500 Coupe
from 208 to 209
so i switched over to the new body after my lease was up... i had an '02 430 but i miss my 430 alot. the ride is a lot more smoother and it turns tighter with less body roll. i dont know if i can say i prefer the new body over the old one but i do love my new car here are pics

nice car... i wouldn't trade in my W208 for the 209... unless its the DTM model... btw, wats up with the chrome trim around the lights... doesn't really match in my opinion...

00 clk 320 and 3 hondas. Darn I am down to 4 cars.
The 209 looks girlyish to me. No offense intended, it's a nice car!
I like the mean looks the 208 has specially when lowered and fitted with bigger rims.

i picked it up from the lot and the dealer had the trim on it.. personally i liked it. yeah i can see where your comming from it might look tacky but whatever.. it is a more girlyish car. i miss my w208 alot. it was fun to throw around. the w209's have a much more smoother ride and isnt as sporty. but that doesnt mean i dont love it. regardless im just happy to have any mercedes
