Mercedes makes some some awesome engines. Now, if they could really work on dropping weight and adding feel, I would LOVE it. For now, the E55 is a great cruiser, but the tuned tt is a great sports car.

The CLK-DTM handles no better than the other AMG models. The bodykit is for looks only.

This was my point, I'm sure it drives like any other benz. For the price id pick the DTM since the SLR just looks funny IMO.

It reminds me of a silver Batmobile.

What's up Gary? I hope things are well with you too. Yeah, I was pretty lucky to get my hands on those cars. I'd love to drive a Stradale and CGT to see how they compare. Drive your friend's CS and let me know!
