Silver CLK63 BS in Houston

Anyone recognize this car?



I've seen it at the 24hr fitness downtown a few times. Looks insane from the rear as those tires are some kind of sexy wide.

Car looks SICK!

Doctodd33 - Yes they are HREs. They are the P40's. Or they could be the P40S...

A car
They look like M40's, predecessor to the P40. Definitely not P40S.

Where was it spotted? I know two other silver BS owners, John and Hartley, and I have a Black one, would be nice to get together sometime. I have also seen a red one floating around Sugar Land sometimes. Nice capture.

Why is the guy rolling around with your plates??? You know you are probbaly going to be recieving a ton of red light violations in the mail in the very near future LOL. Why in the world would you leave your old plates on a car you sold? you are just asking for all kinds of problems.

Not really ... as long as you have a release of liability, you're covered.

Not sure why he didn't change them out, but I reported the sale to CA DMV, so I'm covered. He must of recently changed to another CA plate, because I recently received a notice from TX.

I think the car makers are starting to realize the importance of great looking rims and how they carry a lot of weight with the consumers. Just look at these!
That silver paint color like a great combination.
Sweet looking ride!
