2009 CLK550 that I got a few weeks back. 39k miles and still smells new :>
Thanks for everyone that gave me advice on the warranty issue.

So I traded this bad boy in a few weeks ago and got a 6 series. Sad to see it go, but the 6 series has always been a dream car and the deal was too good to pass up. I will miss it though :|

Congrats! Is it the new body ones or the the previous gen? I'd like to know as interestingly enough my second choice was an 08-10 650i. Want to see how they compare to you and what are you likes and dislikes thanks Originally Posted by broli720

I always liked the previous gen's (04-10) body style. I got lucky enough to snag an 09. I'm loving it so far but it is definitely a different ride quality than the clk. it took a while to get use to.Originally Posted by gaazmon

Same here. The old body just flowed better imo. That's great man. The 08-10 ones definitely had some exterior improvements to the design for better flow and I love the stock wheels that come on them. How's the power throw down and handling compare? I know the car has much more tech in it compared to the W209s. I feel like the Benzes that came out around the 03 time (E, CLK, SL) really lacked in the infotainment and electronic gadgetry compared to the likes of the 5 and 6 series that came out the year afterOriginally Posted by broli720

My CLK definitely had less weight, more torque and power. But there is just something about the 6 series that gets me excited. Its always been my dream car so maybe that's why. The only edge the 6 has is in handling. Don't know if it's the run flats but the car definitely handles better.
I really just love the look (exterior and interior). I'm still working out what mods to add to get the power and torque where I would like it, but I'm definitely satisfied. This is one of those cars that I'll never trade in.

Ya it definitely has that something about it. Glad you like it so much. Congrats and enjoy

There are many things I like about BMW vehicles, and there are many things I like about MBZ vehicles. They both make great machines. I happen to prefer MBZ vehicles for several reasons. As I get older, I appreciate a softer more compliant ride, but I also enjoy the occasional curve. While MBZ may not handle it as well as BMW, it has the right blend of comfort and performance for me. And I also like the controls and "feel" of MBZ interiors better. There is no right or wrong here. There are so many great choices in cars today - get what YOU enjoy. Congrats on the new BMW, Broli!
Yeah! What you said Rodney.
I am just thankful there are so many choices; and that I can afford a couple of them...
My SIL M3 is a heck of a car. I've driven it several times. He now has a SC and aftermarket exhaust on it..... However, I honestly prefer my 550.
Congrats Broli.... It feels good to LOVE the one you're with huh.

Yes it does and thanks. The clk was definitely fun to drive while I had it.
