AMG to build CLK DTM AMG for public!

"The Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM AMG: Thoroughbred race-track technology for the road

Affalterbach, Apr 30, 2004
With its combination of state-of-the-art motorsport technology, driving dynamics more familiar from the race-track, captivating styling features and unrivalled exclusivity, the new Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM AMG will set the pulses of car enthusiasts racing that much faster. Limited to a production run of only 100 units, this two-door masterpiece combines an AMG 5.5-litre V8 supercharged engine developing 428 kW/582 hp, a newly developed chassis, optionally available sports tyres and aerodynamics optimised in the wind tunnel to deliver a truly exceptional high-performance experience. The AMG thoroughbred accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds, and on to an electronically governed maximum speed of 320 km/h."

All DTM race cars have black spoilers, so looks that the street version too.

I was just informed by a rather official source that it's more like 200-250K €

It benefits vs the CLK GTR in that there are some parts shared with the mainline cars.
