Hey Guys,

Im sure many of you know me, as ive been a fairly regular participant on MBWorld, but focused in the W208 forum as i own a 2000 CLK430. Well im excited to inform you guys that in the next week or so, i should be an immigrant to the CLK55 forum. Working out the loan with the bank, but about 95% sure that ill be joining you guys very soon. My new baby is as follows:

2002 CLK55 ///AMG with 18,000 pampered miles
Car is in perfect condition
Orion Blue over Charcoal/White two-tone interior
All the goodies including Comand
Car currently has the stock AMG rims chromed, but i will be putting my 18" Carlsson 2/5 on as soon as i get the car along with my Eisenmann Race Exhaust, Kleemann Suspension, and EvoSport UD pulleys and other small things. (Illuminated Door Sills, AMG flat hood badge, stereo system, etc)
Nice little added bonus with the car is a perfect set of white sheepskin custom seat covers for the front seats.

As you can see, Im quite excited, and I will post pictures as soon as i receive the car and switch over all my aftermarket parts.

Regards,
Eric

Congratulations and Welcome!

The AMG Photo Shoot is scheduled for May 10th in Canton, GA (about 30 miles North of Atlanta).

Hope to see you there....you would have the only Orion Blue AMG there. Details are in the Events Forum if you are interested.

Thanks, I would love to get there, might be a push to get the car by then, but that would be awesome if i got it, because i would definitely come. Ill let you guys know if i will be able to attend. Once again thanks for the invite.

Congrats Eric! The time has finally come! So did you buy or lease and how much was everything out the door? Any plans for mods in the future?

Petie

If everything works out, im buying from a private seller. Realistic plans for modifications:

18x8, 18x9 Carlsson 2/5 Brilliant Edition (already have)
Eisenmann Race Exhaust (already have)
Kleemann Suspension (waiting patiently)
EvoSport UD Pulley Kit (already have)
///AMG Illuminated Door Sills (already have)
Custom Stereo (already have)
Debadge as soon as I get the car
Paint Brake Calipers, color not decided yet (no big brake kit for now)

Future Plans:
Expression DTM bodykit
I plan on painting some different parts (i.e. front grill, engine cover)

Not much else, driving a 430 for a couple years, the power of the 55 will keep me plenty happy, hopefully supressing the mod virus i have....

As far as price, I got a price that was more than fair...

Don't worry after you get used to that power then you'll want more!!
