Talking m5board.com member Kalbas participates in Gumball with a CLK-DTM AMG
Very nice:

http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=54136

It will be very interesting how to see it holds up versus the top exotics of today. Another member is having his McLaren SL-R.

This will be fun to follow, the race is now ON!

The CLK DTM is faster and all better performer than the SLR. Anyone have an idea what the price is on the CLK DTM considering only 100 were being made?

Your right but only by a hair faster.

CLK DTM AMG:
$250,000
582 hp
590 lbs of torque
Wt: 3850 lbs
0 - 100km (62mph) 3.9
0 - 200km (124mph) 10.9
Top speed (limited) 320km

SLR:
$450,000
617 hp
575 lbs of torque
Wt: 3898 lbs
0 - 100km (62mph) 3.8
0 - 200km (124mph) 10.6
Top speed (limited) 344km

I'll take the CLK DTM AMG.

Cool video of the CLK DTM street version, with Jean Alesi behind the wheel:

(requires RealPlayer - note: even with a fast cable connection, I get best quality video when set to "modem", rather than DSL/ISDN)
