BEING 6 ' 2 MYSELF I THINK THERE IS MORE ROOM IN THE 209. I TO FEEL SOME TIME THE REAR OF THE 209 LOOKS A BIT LIKE ANOTHER CAR. THAT SAID I FEEL THE INTERIOR GAGDETS THE 209 AND THE RIDE IS WHY I PURCHASED THE CAR, I LIKE THE EXTERIOR OF THE 208 MAYBE A LITTLE MORE THAN THE 209. I STILL THINK THESE TWO CARS ARE THE BEST THING ON THE ROAD IN THIS PRICE RANGE EXPECIALLY IN BLACK OPAL !!!

Britton:

You get no rebuttal from me. I love both CLK models, and there's nothing like a MB, especially the customer service at the dealership I purchased the car at. It was a no nonsense transaction. Although I tried my best to nickel and dime them to death, I was unsuccessful. I even walked out on the deal and called another dealer.

Bottom line is that the CLK is the best looking (and functioning) car in its class. Love it over the 330ci, better than the G35 coupe and the Lexus GS 430. (all which I have test driven).

No doubt that Black Opal is the best colour! "Is it black? Is it blue? Is it dark green?" Depends on the way the light shines upon it!

I WENT TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS AND NOBODY WAS DEALING BECAUSE OF THE NEW 209 STYLE.
I END UP GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT WAS THE CLOSEST TO MY HOUSE AND THE BEST SERVICE I FOUND OUT LATER. I WAS ABLE TO GET SOME FREEBIES ALL WEATHER FLOOR MATS AND THE CARGO TRAY FOR THE TRUNK. I AM WAITING FOR IT TO WARM UP TO WAX WITH ZAINO AND GET SOME PICS OF THE CAR.
TAKE CARE.

I got the sunroof, sunshade,cd changer and heated seats since i live in wisconsin they are nice to have in cold weather. I got a invisible bra installed on the front of the car and on the side mirrors and the lights. They threw in free all weather floor mats and the trunk caro tray. I know I told you that i really like the car but I do. The weather here has been nasty to drive so I have been going to the garage and looking at it and seating in it sounds crazy but true.
