I am a believer. Just turned my E46 in on lease and made the mistake of driving a CLK55. Now I must have one! The torque difference really makes a big difference once you get rolling.

Do any of you gurus know of a good 208 CLK55 AMG for sale? Some Mods are okay, but I don't want anything crazy modded out.

This is supposed to be my 55 as soon as my CLK430 sells BUT here it is!!

Hey thanks for the reference!

I was actually thinking of jumping into a Bimmer - a 335i to be exact =)

Please let me know if you are interested.

Rgds,

Oh yeah!!! I almost forgot to tell you this....I made the same mistake driving a C55. I took my 430 in for the A/C check up and while I was waiting there they handed me the keys to a 05 C55 and that thing felt like a monster. Now my 430 just does not quite cut it anymore

This is the only reason I am selling my 430...If this bad boy does not sell then I have to do some serious mods to be happy with it. I need at least 360HP to be happy with it. Hell it might be worth it.

I know Blackbenz is going to do some serious tuning to his 430 so maybe I need to get with him.

I am very interested in it. The only thing is that I need to sell mine first. If you want I can hold it for you at my house till I sell mine. This way you dont have to worry about a place to park it and just worry about your 335.

No prob on the reference by the way!

Greg

wow, that 208 is REALLY nice...wow...

How reliable are the CLK55's as a daily driver. I will probably get one that is bone stock. I know most Mercedes are very reliable, how about the 55? I am getting ready to go back to school and I don't want something that is going to conk out on me and cost $5k to fix.

By the way, thanks for passing Holson's 55 along. It is very nice.
