CLK63 BS in Car Museum in Las Vegas..?
I always stop by the Imperial Palace Car Museum Collection when I'm in Las Vegas.
This time while strolling thru it, I came upon a very rare Red CLK63 BS with a very optimistic asking price.

I did notice that the large rear hump was done in Carbon Fiber, so I'd guess a full CF interior upgrade.
I couldn't get really close to check out the interior because it was roped off.
It did look amazing and JR, those are DYMAG wheels.

This is a CLK Black series Forum. MY08 only. You should probably look within the other forums on this site for a MY06 Steering wheel picture. You should also specify what car's MY06 steering wheel you want the image of.

Hmm, so I'm not a CLK expert, but I've been offered a CLK BS steering wheel, was told it was a MY07, which probably tells a lot about the person selling it.
Was wondering what the MY08 ones looked like so I could tell which one it actually was!

The BS wheel will fit many MB models hovever paddle shifters and steering wheel controls might not be plug and play.

Thanks jrcart - it looks like it's spline compatible with the w203, which should mean it would at least physically fit a R171. Still hoping for a photo, as I don't know the difference between the AMG CLK wheel and the BS wheel - if there's a difference!

I would recomend investigating the airbag and airbag wiring harness and ignitor to make sure its compatible as well, MB uses several different airbag systems which may result in an SRS warning light always being iluminated or no working airbags.

Looking at the schematics, it should be fine - CLK shares SRS with the E, E with the SLK, so looking workable. Don't suppose you want to wander out and take some photos? ;-)
Still hoping to put my hands on another R171 030 wheel, but since production is finished, no joy so far.

LOL - I think your car spends more time getting faster than it does in your hands! I'll try searching the threads again, was getting drowned in "signature" hits earlier.

Oh IC. I read J carts reply and he is correct. I hope I didnt come across as to much of a stiffy. Was just trying to put you in the right direction. Anyway i put up a link for you on the post above this one with lots of pics. Hope that helps. Of course J cart shamed me again with his abundance of knowledge. It is good to have people such as J cart. He really knows his *****.

Cool thread. I always liked the BS in red too.
I also like the SL BS in red!
I wonder where he got the one of ten numbers--I thought MB doesn't release info on color break downs?
Either way, really cool--i've never made it to the Imperial Museum, I figured it had a bunch of old stuffy cars I could care less about.
I'll have to give it a looksy next time

The owner of Laguna Niguel MB ordered a Mars red that's three.
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.
