Cut the price in half and I'll take it. Too bad its a little out of my budget right now, amazing car though.

Sorry to say, but you're out of your mind with that price Like others have said, you can get way more car for that money......and I seem to remember a w208 Renntech CLK60 widebody vert 6spd going for a similar price over a year ago. I doubt there is even a single enthusiast out there who will pay more than 40k for that car....don't get me wrong, its a nice car w/ a lot of power, but mods don't equal doubling the market value

If you are a fan of the 208 bodystyle (no longer in production) and would mod one if you had one, then a 55 at only 35 K miles with full tilt Kleemann ++ setup would be a rare find.

No question you could buy other, perhaps even more powerful, cars for the same $$. But there's someone out there who has dreamed of owning this exact car. That's the person who will pay the seller what might seem, to some people, like an "unreasonable" price.

I'd do it!...... If I hadn't already done it ......

........this is why I don't sell my cars. Both sides are correct. The seller invested way more than $50k, but no one is going to buy that car for close to that amount. If you are going to mod these cars this much, you should be prepared to just keep them. The blood and sweat that go into modding these cars unfortunately have no dollar value.

Angry You Just Don't Get It

Just like the ad says and just like Ted, Lowphat and Blackbenz etc. wrote, the car is highly modded, high performance and the right car for the right buyer. If that is not you, or if you cannot afford it, then so be it. That's cool. But don't be a buzz kill for those who may be able to enjoy the car.

To answer the other questions: the cost of the mods and the car far exceed this price; the mods were done in December 2006; a w208 Renntech CLK60 widebody vert 6spd and the E55 PALE in comparison to the performance of my vehicle; and, the car just went on sale yesterday.

Show some love guys.......jeesh

nice car. the only thing is that its probably more fun to buy a car and mod it yourself, as opposed to buying an already highly modified car.

just curious: why are selling it (Clk63 BS?)

BTW, i paid 35k for my w208 amg.

so i guess 50K isn't bad for a 500+HP clk.

maybe i over paid

Like I said, don't get me wrong....its a nice car, but seriously??? It < CLK60? Obviously the rwhp numbers may be a little larger, but damn...how many widebody manual trans mercedes V8's are there out there? You do have a point, and I'm not trying to buzzkill you.....the purpose of my post, and those of others is to help you figure out what price might actually sell your car....which I assume is what you want to do? If you are just fishing to see what you can get, then more power to you, but there are hopes, dreams and aspirations....and then there are hard facts. And the hard facts tell me, and most others on this board that you aren't selling a $50k car here. Just lookin out, even if it doesn't seem this way. Good luck with the sale, it IS a great looking car

This man knows what he's talking about! Let me just add this car is NOT for everyone. Yes you can buy a used 211 55 for that price but like lowphat mentioned this is a rare find.

For those who are looking to get the previous gen CLK and is in the hobby of modding it (engine, aesthetics etc...) this is the car for you!

Kleemann CLK55 > Renntech CLK60 I made that decision not too long ago but I'm a little biased. If anyone out there has a Renntech CLK60 in the DC area and would like to make a video with a Kleemann CLK55 please let me know
