Now. take a CLK 550, with 7 forward gears v. my 5 gears. and another 80 HP and 52 ft-lb of torque.
anyone who got past the 7th grade can tell you who will win that one.
the Benz.

04 CLK 320 > CLK32K
Just a suggestion. I have my calipers powder coated black and if I could go back I would of picked a different color. You can't really notice the black as much as red or silver. Just my opinion

Not sure what color your interior is but if you have black ash, you can do a group buy from ForMyMercedes.com with me to get center-dash trim in black ash along with the wood insert for the glove compartment..IMO it adds a nice finishing touch to the interior.

Here is a CLK55 with the wood insert in shiny black, looks good.

Not sure if you have LEDs, if you don't, you should get some. I can't really tell if you have it or not from the picture. I changed all my interior bulbs except map lights to LEDs. I got them from Sonic tuning. They are great. It's a small mod on the looks department, but it makes a huge difference IMO.
I think you have enough power in your 550, i would just make it look nicer. Quad, CF lip & diffuser, Rims, lower it..

This is the order of mods in order from most beneficial to least beneficial...
#1 Headers > #2 Pulley > #3 High flow Cats > #4 ECU upgrade
K&N filters also help slightly, but really are more for sound than power. High quality oil can help as well.
Hope that helps.
