Exhaust

Hey guys. I just got a 99 CLK320 and its sweet. I am trying to get your opinions on exhaust systems or even mufflers. I have about 1000 to mess around with. Thanks

a 1000 will get you a eisenmen exhaust system. i think on the other forums there doing a group buy so you will get a good price on the exhaust like 859 including shipping.

you dont need a group buy to get it at that price. thats way too much hassle to maybe save literally a few dollars!!!! eisenmann race is the best for the money, without a doubt. i have a lorinser which i think sounds just as good but a little deeper, but they run about $1,700, which is crazy. sometimes you can find it on ebay for less. but youll probably never find a lower price for the eisenmann, but who cares...its so nice!!!

eisanmann is good, I had it on my other clk. You can even go with a custom made exhaust with the amount you wanna spend. I got mine done full cat-back with the secondary cats removed, resontaor removed, muffler and custom quad tips for $750 all together.

I dont have any pics right now, but I will take some and post them when I have my car on the rack next time. Its a muffler tank where the original would be, its a single in and a double out. One outlet goes directly where the factory tip would be, and the other outlet has a pipe that runs behind the bumper between the bumper and spare wheel housing, and it has tips going to the other side.

How could a 320 be an AMG spec? It's like having a BMW 318 and saying its an M power.

you might as well spend $100 on a flowmaster muffler, or if your really really cheap a $14.99 cherry bomb muffler from pep boys. and use the remainder of your cash on gas and a weekend trip

there is little to no gain with the $1000 exhaust other than a lighter bank account and that doesnt impress anyone.

AMG badges are traditionally worn by cars with AMG engines.

Put that $1,000 into the market and turn it into a down payment on a CLK63 AMG.

That spoiler is a Lorinser spoiler. I have the same one on my car. They made 2 types of spoilers, Deck Lid and that one. I personally like that spoiler better then the deck lid one. If you see the car from the back (not that angle) it looks real good.

i dono..but IMO i really dont think a spoiler belongs on a CLK...takes away from the beautiful *** of our cars... (except for decklids)...but as long as u like it i guess thas all that matters...
