"Rareness" of white 2005 clk55???

Hi guys,

First post on here. I'm in the early stages of trying to hunt one of these down. Anyone have an idea of how many are out there? I seem to be having a difficult time finding any that are (or even have been) for sale.

Thank you.

I've only seen one for sale on this board, it was right after I bought my 500, I would have bought it and imported it if I had found it just a little earlier.

Considering there's only 250 2005 CLK55's in the US. I think it's gonna be pretty hard to find one in good condition.

247 actually.

Good luck. It would be safe to say in my opinion less than 50 of them exist.

I was looking for a white, or silver. Offered to buy the white, but they were just a bit out of market value for the car.

Ended up finding my silver like 8 months later. Be prepared to travel. I went to Oklahoma for mine.

I tried to buy one white a couple years back and found only one
but it had no equipment (Nav, vent seats) soo I went with silver.

I think it would be more simple to just to wrap one in white

good luck

Didn't know that ventilated seats were an option. On what years are they available. Thank you for your input...

i'm not sure on what year it's an option...

it's an option on the 2005 for sure.
I have the ventilated seats on mine...not alot of 2005 have them...

other option buttons on the dash in 05 is:

heated seats
the rear sun shade
the parktronik (parking)
Distronik (awesome cruise control)

oo and Keyless Go on the shifter (the best option to have !!!)

thats's it... all other button are standard on all model
