2002 clk 55 amg
Hey all, my fav car on the roads the 01-02 clk. Dunno what it is just love hwo it looks. Anyways today I was drivign past a dealership and saw 3 letters AMG and somethign in my brain clicked and said yes go for it. So i took it for a test drive. And let me just say all you in here are lucky as hell that you can get up and drive this beast every day.

I really want one and that's within my price range but the only thing holding me back is upkeep. An '02 is just about 6 years old at this point and probably out of warranty. If you can't afford maintenance you can't afford the car sadly.

Not sure if you have transacted- but I am also in Stamford... My vehicle is a 2001 but only has 13,400 miles. I don't get to drive it as I work in Manhattan. Let me know if you have any interest. I was told I could extend my warrantee for just under 2k. Best!

Phew ... Gullwing007 almost had me beat as Lowest Mileage W208 55 ... dodged the bullet by 3,500 miles 
Anyway, jmoney6 ... do you have a daily Beater? I echo hellcat, you'd really need the Extended Warrantee and even then that only buys you a few years' time ... I'm almost dreading the end of my EW period but I have a daily beater so my Beast gets babied and maintenance costs are close to zero.

8900 miles and counting ...
Anyway, at the risk of repeating myself, if you aren't made of money (like-a moi), a W208 55 is a great second car ... as a daily however you might need deep pockets ... just my $0.02.

I drive mine around 10-12k miles a year and it's been fine. Parts are a little more to replace like brakes and tires. Oil changes are a little more too b/c it takes more oil than the average car and it's synthetic. Definitely get an extended warranty for anything German. Mine's been almost as good as the factory warranty.
