lol it depends on your area bro, i'm not sure where ct is but both at my home and at sd where i go to school tons of people have cars that are better than my clk500, but on campus i do catch a few glances due to the exhaust but it's hard to compete with my friends who drive 911 turbos

It does turn heads quite a bit. Mostly from old people who give me the dirty look lol.

But in Vancouver it depends where you are. If you're at the west side of Vancouver it's normal but east Van it's a different story.

Why 2005 instead of 2006 model? I waited and bought a 2006 Clk 500 Cabriolet too because of the udated AMG front bumper. It look so much better then the 2005 model.

I only started getting looks when I put rims on my car

The exhaust made a big difference too, but some looks were negative. With the rims, everybody stares lol.

in Vancouver, you will get looks from mostly everyone..Everyone on the westside; West Van will think you are in the regular gene pool, while everywhere else in vancouver driving a w209 puts you in the above avg..

vancouver is starting to get some really exotics now..and the numbers are increasing at a fast pace!



rims + dish + drop = Super looks and smiles from everyone.

Definitely an attention getter, especially when you have good looks to boot, like me!

I get it all the time from parking lots to and off the hwy. People come up to me all the time and asking question about my clk even younger kids. My boss got upset with me when I pulled up to the office in the clk and because he drives a Hybrid Escape that already on it's 4th motor still under factory warrenty, lol.

I had that happen to me a few days ago at a clients office. GM of that company saw me pull up and said "there's something wrong here when a guy like you (I'm 26 in the I.T. Industry) is driving a CLK and I just bought a Kia"
