Since the CLK Black series have now been discontinued and is no longer being produced will there be a replacement for it and if so how can we find out what that replacement will be?

Or is this a one time production for AMG? One time meaning no more BS in the future? Was just curious.

Your thoughts?

id think with the cap and trade tax they are trying to pass we are approaching another 1980's with the crappy cars that came out back then.

There's an X5M and an X6M. Never thought BMW would diminish the M/// division. I hope AMG won't follow suit and Black badge and ML.

I don't think there will be a replacement in the same price range, if at all. It's hard to see investing the R and D for a few hundred cars that don't sell for a price high enough to conceal a large profit. AS

Guess you haven't seen this?

Well - as we all know I'm sure, MB's killing off the CLK line entirely; rumor has it that they're not even going to make a "regular" AMG-variant E coupe (logical CLK replacement)... so another mid-sized, mid-range BS might be quite a ways off. SL65BS will be the logical range-topper, and the SLK55BS as the entry version (albeit Europe-only).

It'd be nice to see them make a C63BS, maybe raiding the DTM-spec parts bin a bit.

Thanks and i did see that. Was thinking along more in the line of a CLK instead of the SL or SLK BS.

there are only 4 new cars left so i think the market has turned around....of course im biased now. Laguna Niguel said they wont let the remaining red car go for under 100K and it has 480 miles. Maybe true maybe not.

Fletcher Jones in Newport Beach has new cars (CLK-BS) ... I looked at a silver one last night.

I think the replacement for me is an SLS.
