Just saw a 2001 Kleemannized CLK55 at the dealer

Wow, was I impressed! This car was transformed in Georgia. It is full Kleemann spec. and those 19 in. wheel/ tires are something else. Maybe a little to big for my taste but it looks spactacular. The installation is top notch, unfortunately I couldn't take it out for a spin( I should have bribe the service advisor) I was told it cost the owner $40,000 for the complet package( kompressor, wheel, brakes and ECU reprograming) Man! I am still drooling.

Hello Chappy,

I didn't see the milage. The front windshield does have a Kleemann decal across the window. The drooling continues.

Audi 80 Quattro (with a couple of modifications)

Do everything you can to bribe your way into the drivers seat of that car. It's worth it, trust me. Even if you have to trade the guy your first born child to get in the drivers seat for just a block, it's worth it.
