This is supposedly the new CLK DTM 2005. There are more pics on the site I have linked, so take a look.

That's the 209 DTM street version that has been posted about a number of times on this forum and will begin production soon.
The current 2004 DTM race car is styled after the w203 c-class sedan, as will be the 2005 car.

Yup I agree, the 208 DTM is sick..and I should have been more specific, this isnt the race version, but you gotta dig the upgrades. Paddle shifters are the way to go.

It can be purchsed from your local honda dealer. WHOOOPS! Did I say that. C'mon now, you don't think it looks like a rice burning street racer. I will re-iterate, The Fast and the Furious is only a movie!! HAHAHA.. IMO, it looks like a suped up MITSU / HONDA.

C'mon now, the bottom one is designed for one thing and one thing only, which you have obviously never experienced. MB can't hold a candle to Porsche capability.. And, bare bones stock to stock, you're gonna even put the DTM in the same sentence as the GT3? Ok, your opinion.. I guess.

I think that it would have to be said that out of the box, MB can't handle like the GT3 or any porsche for that matter. They are not in the same class. The Porsche is designed for one thing, the MBZ is designed for something completely different. You have to "drive" a porsche, you kind of just cruise in benz. DTM or not..
I would be interested to see how they both do head to head on a track. I am sure that race will come soon enough.

To quote Bestuhnin
I guess you're talking about the DTM right, it's got a big wing and fancy paint job, cause the Porsche has proven it's capabilities on and off the track, I am still waiting to see MBZ.. I mean in the the early 1900's MBZ lead the track in power and agility, because they were it, but now-a-days???
I will admit, that with 100k+ in mods, as some on this forum has pointed out, the MBZ is a very capable car, however out of the box to out of the box, it's not going to touch the Porsche. Not putting MBZ down, but it's like driving your couch, as someone here on the forum once said.
its funny how everyone thinks that a car with a wing and some graphics is a rice rocket
