Recently traded in my BMW and picked up this 2005 CLK55 AMG
It was 1 owner weekend car in mint condition and has only 20k miles. I could pass it up at 23k. I read on the forums there were only 247 coupes made of this year. Is there anyway to tell what number it was by the VIN?

Wow! Congrats on a rare find, especially with those miles. My 05 just turned 34k. That is a steal for that price. Where did you find it at? Austin E Autos? What options do you have?

As far as I know, there is no way to tell which number it was.

Welcome to the forum.

More pix needed too.

This is a pic of picking it up. austineautos.com still have the car pics up.



Yeah austineautos had it in as a consignment 1 owner. Owner was moving and priced it to sell. Lucky for me I got there 5 minutes after they posted it on the website. We were just passing by and decided to stop. The ride of this car is incrediable and I would have traded 2 bmw's for it. Looks feels and smells brand new. As for options. Im trying to figure out what it doesnt have so farI know it doest have seat ventalation but does have heated seats

No we were just going "to look" at several BMW's that they had there but took one test drive in this and we couldnt stop talking about it. At that point we knew it picked us.
