Here is mine:
Here are pictures of the 2004 CLK 320 that I purchased Feb 27th.
Firemist Red with sunroof package, appearance package and CD changer. Only upgrade I have installed to date is a light tint on the windows. I have ordered the chrome door handel shells and wood insert for glove compartment handle.

Really loving this vehicle except for the factory suspension setup that causes it to pull to the right (drove two test vehicles that both have this characteristic and have read similar complaints throughout this forum).
Have an agreement with the service manager to bring it in after 1K miles for alignment and if necessary, installation of camber/caster bolts.

I've got black/stone and yes it does look sweet when clean but maintaining the paint to keep it without swirls and scratches is possible but a pain in the ***!!!

Boys....
My Carlsson 1/16 BE installation is pending for Pss9 before I put it on, otherwise it wont ride well and look its best. I find the stock body kit very classic, I was thinking of changing the body kit... but I think the wheel will do the trick. what do you all think? Has anyone instaled 18in on a stock susspension how does it ride and look?

I've got Carlsson 1/16's and Brabus springs on my 209 w/ the stock body kit and I think it looks great. I get compliments on a regular basis. So yes - I think the wheels will do the trick!
Although I have never had the 18"s on with the stock suspension (I changed wheels and springs at the same time), I did have my stock 16"s on this past winter with my aftermarket springs. You can feel the difference between the 16"s and 18"s from a comfort standpoint (can't comment on performance as I am not an agressive driver), but it is not a substanstial difference. Hope that helps...

Thanks atl2nyc!!
I agree at least the spring has to be changed, and the stock body kit is BEAUTIFUL and CLASSIC. I would go for PSS9 still because i think both the new shock and spring would be great working together. I have seen your 1/16 from harris page, they looks HOT, are they DE or BE?
