Gang,

This is the King of all CLK's the DTM AMG CLK road car. Only sold in Europe though
Price : Around $300,000 USD
Power: 582HP 0 to 60 in 3.9 sec.
Engine: 5.5 liter NA V8 with 10.5:1 compression

I'd say this is the CLK to end all CLK's

Happy Motoring,
MBH

I don't like it

I like the power, I like the interior (except for the seats - don't look very comfortable for anything but track racing), and of course I like the grille

I don't like the wheels (too open, too much showing), I don't like the wheel well fairings at all - I realize for those big fat tires it needs them, but the body looks "Mustang-ized" to me that way. The spoiler ... eh. A little jarring (couldn't paint it silver?)

And of course I don't like the fact that it's W209-based

That actually happened in the 1950's in North America. Someone stole the entire transport truck carrying some Porsche race cars. The cars were rare items back then and now they would be worth $$$$$. The cars never turned up, still M.I.A.
