CLK55 Cabrio, Honda Accord 05 had CLK430 Cabrio
Just bought CLK55 2005
I finally did it. I was so close to buying a CLK350 that was in 2 accidents but it was a good price, but i held back the impulse and waited and BAM came out with a CLK55. I used to have a CLK430 cabrio back in the day. WOW the xtra 100HP makes a difference plus all the options.

Can anyone recommend a good car cover for a car that will out in the elements!

Very nice ride! Seeing your wheels convinced me to refinish mine and reinstall them on my 550.

Thanks all!!! You guys basically made my ultimate decision on this car. I love everything about it. YES the brakes work awsome and look Awsome too. Ive read that people didnt like the 05's because of the brake repair cost, but im not worried about it. If anything im worried about alll other repairs haha. Thanks for all the info and hopefully soon i will be able to help others on the forum!!
