Talking Got It!!!!!! Clk 63 Amg Cabrio!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Straight from the AMG Factory at Affelterbach (sp?)Germany...just took delivery of one of the first cars in Southern California. Ordered it four months ago...Arctic White with Black interior with Aluminum Trim, parktronic, Keyless Go, plus a whole lot of goodies..active seats, satellite radio...etc.

Driving experience...A full road test is in order, but suffice to say its by far the best handling and accelerating Benz I've ever driven...and Ive been driving benzes for 17 years...drove the previous CLK 55 Cabrio on a closed race track in Nevada....this one Mercedes hit it out of the ballpark!

Full set of pics to follow this weekend!

Congrats! Since you owned MBs for a long time, ever driven in a lowered one? If so, how does that compare to your new cabrio?

Interesting concept, because the first CLK looks better to me also, well sometimes. The facelift did the current CLK a world of good, but still....

Isn't it written somewhere in the TOU that you cannot post that you picked up a new model AMG without posting pics also.
