Is that a digital photo you took and posted?

To be in the presence of that car must be an awesome experience.

Now, how does one go about getting one?!

If you can't get it here, then the only alternative would be to
add the mods if they are available.

Really nice, the air dam and fender flares are well done without
looking overcooked!!

I wanna see the look on the guy's face when his wife comes home from the Neiman Marcus shopping center after kissing the concrete tire stop with that cow catcher front spoiler.

These cars consist of extremely limited number production runs for exclusive benefit of the lucky sperm club members in Europe's inner circles. A few examples do slip out to our shores since we too have left hand drive ruHave any idea what these puppies cost? Better yet, have any appreciation for the degree of depreciation? These cars live in the moment, till the next better version appears.

At any rate, this is one trick sport coupe that MB has squeezed out of the CLK toothpaste tube.

Hey Fella's,

I have got a CLK55 AMG 2006 Convertible coming for my wife and I am looking for some help in locating a rear spoiler like the one on the CLK DTM Convertible. I have got most of the other parts, 19" wheels, ECU chip, Brabus Lowering suspesion, Filter, Lights & Leds, Exhaust, etc.

Could someone point me in the right direction to who would handle that item. Hope to hear from someone.

Robert

Two suggestions:

1. Contact AMG and see if they will sell you one.
2. Have one fabricated.

Good luck

or 3: Forget it.

That thing will look ridiculous IMO on a standard CLK55. Kinda like the ricer wings....

Because they already have a coupe. And some people like convertibles.

Yeah a 4 seat convertable race car. The coupe is a 2 seat. I don't understand the whole lets cut the top off, add 2 seats, add a few hundred pounds to stiffen the body mentality. Keep it a race car.

Someone will obviously buy it though. Having ridden in a DTM coupe I feel its dumb, but hey what do I know.

Hi Fella's,

Doing 250km in a coupe is one thing, you want to try it in a convertible, the wind, the noise, the feeling, the experience is different. Remember racing started in open cars and is what F1 and now A1 is now. Ask any open wheeler racer and he will certainety give you a piece of his mind what he thinks of tank top racers.

You want a fun car to drive try a M3 Convertible with mods. I will see what this new CLK55 AMG 2006 Convertible is like once I have done all the mods to it. ECU Chip, 19" wheels, new suspension, exhaust, lights,air filters, 98 octane fuel and I want to get hold of the rear DTM convertible spoiler to hold the damn thing on the ground.

PS. This will be my wifes car.

Robert
