One last question....

....before I jump in and buy a CLK. I have narrowed my search to a 2000-2001 CLK430, but am unsure if my height is going to be a problem. I stand 6'5", and am unsure if I will have any fitment issues. I know I should go down and check one out, but just want to have some feedback before I get too into the search.

Thanks! The information here has been quite valuable to me.

At 6'5", I think you should be ok with the CLK... i wouldn't recommend putting someone of your height in the back seat... but the fronts should be fit you nicely.

The best thing is to just stroll down to the dealership and give it a test drive... and sit in the car for a little while to get a good feel for it.
