I call mine Cinnamon. Seems like a name for a girl that convinces you to do naughty things. Which the CLK is far too good at I admit.

Always thought a nik'-name had to "pic" itself...

2long an explanation but my dad (who recently passed) had a 50's 190D; tail-fins and all!! We called it "the white night." My bro picked up a '68 250sl several year ago; thats the "white night II." So when I scooped a CLK this summer from the Bagley family in MI (Im in NC) it was named the Bagley "blacknight" but, i call it "the//AMG" too... told you it was long! LOL Familys had several MB's- Although he saw photos my only regret is not being able to take my dad (brother & Momski) for an evening ride before he died. That would have been sweet- completing the circle.
