While it would be nice if it were less, it's still lighter than an RS4, M5, or M6.

That's 5kg heavier than the CLK63 coupe! I don't see how that is correct with no rear seats & (i would think) lightweight wheels & carbon fiber front seats.

Outstanding seats in the black perlon velour. Not at all interested in the leather.

But, in that price range I'd prefer a manual transmission Porsche.

This may be the best looking CLK ever. I'll take one in blue.
Go to the official website. It only comes in black and silver.

1,760kg is indicated on both the US-spec and ROW websites. One of them is wrong; the US-spec power seats and side airbags alone will add close to 100lbs.

That's not as bad as I thought my 997S is around 3,300lbs.

The SLK black series did without all of the power roof retraction hardware and software. Basically all of the CLK's performance enhancements are added weight.

good point.

i think the slk black series has a carbon fiber roof top, just like the m6. does the clk have it too?

I think the CLK 63 black series will be killer for track days. I wish it was a little lighter and we had the euro seats but the extra cooling for trans and power streering as well as engine means it's serious. Funny, I wasn't this excited about the porsche.
I do not believe that price just yet.... you could be right but i think that someone is speculating. at the dealership.

The MSRP for a regular CLK63 AMG is 90,000$. How in the world do you expect this car to be priced anywhere under 100,000$

because its a drop top... price the coupe a little lower and add 15 to 20k... and there you have it, your hovering around 100-105ish

That makes perfect sense to me. Merc. Cab's are always more $$ than hardtops by well over 10K or more. Base price for this car should be around 100K. I will find out tomorrow night at the AMG preview in NYC. I can't wait to go to this event!!!

2001 CLK55 AMG
If my wife would listen to me & win the lottery, I'd be able to get one of these.

Actually, there's a typo on the mercedes-amg page itself? On http://http://www.mercedes-amg.com/CLK_Black_Series/ under Technics | Performance it says 0-200 m in 13,8s. Which, although fast for a human, is mind-bogglingly slow for a car. Presumably this is supposed to be 0-200 km/h?

The only thing is though, this isn't a regular CLK Coupe, all those modifications cost money so I'd believe the 130-140K price range. Plus this is limited production.

Maybe they meant 0-200m when driven under water

CLK63 Black Series in White

OK I take it back. Maybe they do come in different colors other than Black and Silver.
