CLK DTM AMG Automobile mag review
I just opened my Jan 2005 Automobile issue where on the second page of the index they have a picture of the CLK DTM with the caption "RAW POWER, The Mercedes CLK DTM AMG is the purest car since the Ferrari F40."
The have a three page review with some good pics. They don't have the review online yet, but they do have several nice wallpaper shots.

BTW they are limited to 100, all sold out and not coming to the U.S. top speed is governed at 199MPH(damn) and will be about $300,000 after taxes if you convert it to $$. and the interior is sweet.
i got a DVD with the DTM on a track and wow the sound is amazing.

Another good review on the CLK DTM is in the December issue of "Mercedes Enthusiast" magazine, as well as the SLK AMG.
Here's a link for subscription information etc., there are no on-line articles.

the sound of the DTM racing cars is just mind blowing. they don´t sound as if they´d be powered by a V8. but they´re louder an faster as they seem to be, when you see them on TV. in the last 2 years i visited 4 DTM races an every single one was almost magival. i have some video clips, that illustrate the ambience. if you´re interested i can load them up.
last of all i can only say: come to germany and see a weekend of pure racing. it´s something i will never forget!
