2002 CLK430
2000 is a good year. Better than 1998/1999 model. I'd prefer a 2001/2002, but 2000 isn't bad.
This excerpt from www.fitzhughmedia.com/MBF/W208-5.html covers the 2000 model year CLK:
Mercedes-Benz introduced the CLK430 Cabriolet. This was the first V8 powered mid-sized Mercedes-Benz Cabriolet since the 1971 280SE 3.5. In addition, there were a lot of upgrades.
We may run the CLK artcle in the next edition of the Southwest Star. If not this edition, the next. It's either the CLK or a 300 SEL 6.3 article that we've been sitting on.
