2003 CLK 430, R33 GTR,
New member from Oklahoma

Hello, my name is Eric and although new to the Benz world, I am not new to the modified car scene. I also own a R33 GTR and a 2012 lifted Z71 4x4. I purchased my 03 CLK430 from a friend of mines parents for a steal anad have to admit the car is alot more fun than I expected. Granted I have only had her 5 days, shes been alot of fun. Future plans include 19" staggered TSW Mirabeau matt black wheels, LED tail lights, sport grill, & flush hood ornimate, and a few other odds and ends. Future plans include CLK C63 style front bumper and complete audio redo

Don't know if the OP is still around but I'm in OK too.
I'm interested in how you got a R33 GTR into the US? My son is looking into getting an R32 under the 25 year rule.

2003 CLK 430, R33 GTR,
The R33 has been in the USA since 02. It is a MR vehicle. I would suggest your son check out Rivsu Imports out of FL. They are great guys and have a great inventory in stock.

He's been watching their web site. He's planning a purchase in March and it seems like it would be easier to get one thats already imported than to try and do it yourself.
