2006 CLK350
i think its a great looking car, but they did nothing for engine. Its still going to be the same 3.5 liter v6 I have. You can buy a well loaded 335 for around your base price of a clk350. the 3 series coupes are just more appealing to the younger crowd. I like the MB styling, but that are many more 335s/328's in my area, than CLK's. Unfortunately, this car cant kill the 335 lol

2000 CLK 3.2
Oh My God ...this car resembles the 335i way to much..it looks nice but way to close.

Looks a lot better than the W209 but still way to close to the 335i.

I just hope it handles better in the snow better then the w208. I got caught in a snow storm on saturday with my w208 and I had to drive at 40 mph to maintain control. Love the redesign.

That was my first time driving a rear-wheel drive vehicle through the snow. It was definitely an experience. I love the car to death. Tomorrow i'm taking it to the dealership and having them preform a service plan b on it.

Yeah, not too fond of the rear end, but these are just renders to be exact, so it's not official, much like Sam said it resembles the 335i.

Our W208 FTMFW!

OT - Toyotasuka$$, IMO that Service B is BS and is just a regular oil change by the stealerships, it's to get your money, because all the rest of the "Service B" stuff they do is a DIY you can do by visual. Just helping you save some money.

John thanks for the info man. I just bought the car and drove my clk from arizona to michigan so I figured might well have them check it out and see if there is anything wrong with it that I didn't know about. Next time i'm planning to do the oil change myself assuming the weather cooperates.

CLK 430
ceh I have mixed feelings about it, it seems that they are trying to have it look closer to the CL but it doesn't compare. I would have to definitely agree out gen CLK is the best body!!!
