Arrow BaByBoiGsxR's CLK is now under new ownership. Farewell Snow White. It has been fun

How's everyone doing?

It's been a long time since I've posted something here on MBworld, or any other Benz forum in that matter.

Unfortunately, I officially no longer own a W208. My beloved "Snow White" and I have parted ways.

The good news is that I know that Snow White is in good hands. I sold her to a car enthusiast just a few years younger than me. He came from a 2000 Corvette Z06 and now owns my former prized possession.

In due time there will be two new threads created...

One will be an introduction of the new owner ...that's if he decides to join the forum.

The second one will be a fun updated post of my new ride... "Silver Bullet".

I'm currently working on the car. But I'll take some really detailed pics soon enough.

Here are some pics I randomly pulled up... (some are from 2008/2009)

I saw your car on Craigslist for a while, glad you were able to sell it.

What's the silver bullet? An AMG since bullet typically= speed?

It looks like your white w208 was very tastefully modded.

Yeah, it was difficult to let it go. I've invested so much money and hard work into the car. But it was all worth it. Certain priorities have changed, so at some point, I'd have to sell the car anyways.

Sometime in June, I'm planning to go to the Del Mar Fair. Afterwards I'm planning to visit some relatives in the San Diego area. Perhaps we can meet up and I can finally see your car in person. We can probably invite Derick out. I forgot his username. He's that Filipino guy with the white widebody W208. We can do a little photoshoot or just hang and grab a bite.

Thank you for the compliment.

As much as I would like to throw out hints, I'd probably end up giving it away.

Soon enough I'll post pics.

When I 1st joined the forum years ago yours was one of the CLKs I held in high regard. Your subtle mods helped me decided on which way I wanted to go when customising my car. Sad it's had to go, but atleas it's in appreciative hands!

It's all good. It was time for change anyhow.

Are you still here in the U.S. or back in Japan? Whenever you come visit Ash, I'll be there.

Thanks PJ. What I wished i could have done was mass produce my custom rear setup for everyone. If it wasn't for the "serious issue" i had with the shop who screwed me over, everyone could have had a similar setup to mine.

Back in the US for now. Also importing my car so hope to have it soon. As soon as I do I plan to drive down to see Ash, hopefully we can hookup this time. I'm over in NV.

The moment has come... (There are still more mods on its way. But here's one picture for now. More to come in due time.)

For sure bro. Definitely hit me up. I know the last time you came by, I had something going on that weekend and wasn't able to meet up with you guys.

Sounds good. Possibly in a couple/few weeks.

And oh.... as a random note. I just found out that my W208 is up for sale again by the person who just bought my car. He's currently going through some financial hardship. If anyone's interested, it can be found on Craigslist (Los Angeles / Orange County) under "CLK320". Sort by gallery view and you'll find it. I hope things become financially better for the guy that just bought my car.
