Three on the board is 6 and the Motor Trend or C&D was a red one maybe not a production car who knows so that's 7. I think there's about 8% production in mars red, so figure around 25. total.

One of my buddies snapped a photo of a red one parked in the parking lot directly behind the pagoda at the Indy 500 last year, it had Michigan plates on it.

It did look amazing and JR, those are DYMAG wheels.

went to the museum site & only non-OEM interior CF item is the shift knob but I couldn't see the battery cover/hump so IMHO there's approx 15-17k's worth of CF - plus looks like OEM sized Dymags - what a waste IMO passing up the opp' to have 305 rears.

I just found this on DuPont Registry, same red car with lots of photos. I still don't see $30k in CF. Makes me wonder why someone would invest in Dymags and all the CF and only put 35 miles on the car/

Maybe it's just a hobby for them and then moved on? Even though that price is still somewhat high.

Did they really only make 10 red BSs? Sounds like BS to me

CLK63 Black Series

Regarding the "One of 10 Red", here are the VIN Numbers of 9 other CLK63 BS that have been listed for sale on the internet. Add on the owners of Red CLK63 Black Series that are on this forum that have not either listed their car, or purchased a car that was listed on the internet, and it seems as though the number of Red ones must be greater than 10.

Red VINS:
WDBTJ77H28F248708
WDBTJ77H48F247771
WDBTJ77H58F236147
WDBTJ77H68F228641
WDBTJ77H78F248526
WDBTJ77H88F249037
WDBTJ77H98F235891
