I'm looking to pick up a CPO CLK BS.

I regret not buying one back in the day, but there are some decent deals on good examples now.

I test drove one today and it had dents on the front fenders at the location where it meets the doors. Is that normal?

Thanks

I don't think so....here's my BS:

Thank you, RBYCC!

The dealer thought it was normal as it was on both sides, but I found it somewhat odd.

Guess I need to look at some others.

I don't recall seeing this on the silver one I test drove in 2008 either.

Guys, do a thread search. There was an issue with a number of CLK BS front fenders. Mine were replaced under warranty. A number of guys on here had them replaced free of charge for this issue. This is a well known and well documented issue with early release CLK BS's built in 2007.

Here is one link to a thread....there are other threads if you dig.

Cool, thanks much.

My BS was a July 07 build...second owner so not sure if any replacement was done under warranty by the original owner who had a great deal of pull with the selling dealer who was his partner in CGRFS/Team Sabco Racing.

Pix I posted above show no creases/dents...
