Rollnnn's 2005 CLK55 Rocket Bunny

Whats up guys, Im coming from the w203 forum but picked up a 2005 CLK55 last May. I finally finished the main build. If any of you are going to sema this year, it will be in the lower south hall, booth #42213.

I know it's not everyone's style, but let me know what you think. I'll be doing a build thread later on...

Wow. Holy Crap WOW.


When I think about what I hope I can accomplish with my C55, what I picture is so much like this! (in satin pearl white though ).
Well done Rollnnn!


Definitely looking forward to more details! That color is the perfect hue between yellow and orange, hope we get to see it without the graphics

None for now
What a way to represent the W209 is at SEMA! I usually don't like these kinds of builds but this is great! Great build.

Looks great! What racing are you doing with it? What did you do with the open differential and transmission kick down issues? Amazing car and something you don't see every day!

I saw the car at SEMA and I thought it looked really good. The graphics looked good as well. It was a good representation for Mercedes at the SEMA show. Hopefully we get more Mercedes involved at the show, BMW had a pretty strong presence there this year with a lot of cars throughout the show. We have to change that.

whats up Ash, yes you are correct this is the Sarto kit. Not really sure if they did the swap or not, last i saw it wasn't done but that was awhile ago. Flares on the 208 should be pretty sick, definitely keep us in the loop. We are trying to plan out a small toy drive for this Christmas, its still in the planning stages though. Ill let you know when we get something going...

Haha, i wish i could say i race, but this is car is a show queen, lol. Performance wise its been tuned by OE tuning and has a wavetrac LSD. Ill be doing more performance mods in the future, but not really enough to do any racing.

Thank you! I really appreciate that. I know it's not everyone's style but i'm pretty happy with it. I agree with you and would love to see more Mercedes representation at sema, but seriously i don't ever see that coming. Compared to other makes like BMW the market just isn't there. And MB guys aren't really into extremes when it comes to modding. Just my opinion.
