Neither the SL500 or CLK 500 is a real sports car, however, I'd take the SL, stick a Kleemann on top, stiffen the suspension and drive it like a sports car.

CLK 500 ...........62,000 USD

clk500

These are two different types of cars. If you want something that looks sportier and willing to pay the extra premium, then go with the SL 500. IMO I would get the CLK 500 cause it will get as much looks and invest the difference I saved.
