Just picked up my W208 CLK55!
I've been reading the forum for a while, a lot of good info here. Now I finally picked up my car. A 2002 CLK55 with 26,000 miles, I love it.
The pics are from the night I picked it up from the dealer, I haven't had a chance to clean it up and take some decent shots yet.
One quick question, I thought I read something about making the stock exhaust louder, but I can't find it again. Is there an easy way to make the car sound louder, short of replacing the muffler?

Congrats on your 55 
I have that same exact car/color MY, sitting in our garage as well. How do you like the car so far? What are your impressions? To make the stock exhaust louder you can chop off the resonator (intermediate muffler) or get an Eisenmann Race 83mm..

I'm finding out new things about the car every time I drive it and I am very impressed with it. Just today I noticed the frameless joining of the front and back windows, it makes such a nice line outside the car. I love the power, especially when I give it a little punch to pass, it just takes off. My wife finally got a chance to take it for a spin, now she wants it for herself
I'll take a look at removing the resonator, thanks for the tip.
