Beautiful.
I am anxious to get your comparison: GT3 (When it was somewhat stock) vs. CLK63 Black out the box.

I had a deposit on the B.E. but then got the call back in June for my GT3 - Take delivery this week of the GT3.

Congratulations..need more pictures, driving impressions and an exhaust clip.

Cheers

My Firend just took delivery of his and he said it was absoultely amazing. Faster than his Kleeman K4 E55. Whats really cool is the 7G transmission. It's a real F1 style sequential tranny similiar to the Ferrari and Lambo's.

sorry to be off topic but there is no way that a BS is faster than a E55 k4 unless something is wrong with the E55.

back on topic you are one of the lucky to have suck a nice car, i wish i had the cash to buy one.

Only 50 miles so far but what a car! Great power, suspension, steering, brakes, looks, etc. Just about the perfect daily driver.

I would prefer a Porsche GT3 for the track but for the street the CLK is the ****! Great midrange tourque and the tranny shifts fast!

I thought I would scrape the front spoiler on driveways but I have not yet. My GT3 scraped everywhere. Also, the seats are great. They are very comfortable and supportive at the same time. I love how the car has very few extras. Great job AMG!

My friend is thinking of buying one. He wants to trade in his 996 03 GT2, which has a bunch of mods to it. Just upgraded the suspension from GMG. What do you think?

I had a mod'd GT2 and although it was a great and very fast car the CLK would be my choice for a DD. For the track I would never choose a MB over a Porsche. Ever!
