I took the above pics at Donnington, UK

I was able to compare these two new models side by side at Donnington Park race Circuit earlier this year.

There is a real family likeness.

Please post if you would like to see more images!

PS: I have a deposit paid for a CLK55 AMG for 'first quarter' 2003

I was parked next to an SL55AMG last Saturday.
the wider & lower body of SL looks very aggressive !

Except the owner of SL does envy the "ugly plastic cover"
on mine which he missed.

It kills, guys ! when meet Hi-end car owners.

p.s
we're of the same 744 silver.
