1999 CLK 320 Coupe
The W208 looks SICK in black. As the finish on my '99 320 is pretty beat up, I may have to repaint it black at some point. Your car is inspiration!

Hows your car run against the GTO, is it 2005+ w/ the LS2?
A friend of mine has a GTO w/ the LS2 its auto with straight pipes, we haven't had a chance to run against each other. I think i've asked this question before....but i like asking it i wanna be sure :p
By feel it seems to be me!

Thanks for the kind words, guys!
The tinting is questionable
Especially the taillights
The GTO is my brothers 04 5.7 with light mods. I'm not sure how I stand up to a 6.0, but I'm very optimistic

Good to know how i'll run against a GTO LS2 considering they have 40+ more HP (heavy?) . Now when you say they will run close is that with a manual tranny? I find it really odd he can't burn out brake hold and gasing it, maybe something wrong with his car.

For sure, I recall looking in the Jegs catalog seeing all the mods and for cheap too. Upgrade path for CLK seems to be expensive and limited options.

Been there done that-My stock Clk55 walks stock GTOs LS2 400hp 6spd from a roll. Did this # of times. But my C63 runs away from the Clk55
