<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v323/type89q/2008-mercedes-benz-clk63-amg-black-.jpg">

Mercedes Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series running Pirelli "R" compounds. About a $150K car. All I can say is oh baby... just to put things into perspective... I could have been sipping a latte and steering with one hand and still trounced the best lap time I made in the GTI (running stock all seasons, stock everything in fact).

If you win the lottery, or had a short position in Lehman Brothers, I recommend buying one! =)

Default Nice Chris! I've driven a CLK63 and they are a stick, but not on track.

I was disappointed with the M-B C300 4-matic. it is like dredging to get it to turn in, nowhere near as fun as the CLK or a new A4 V6.

Lucky fella!

Default nah, in fact...

MSRP was around $135K before lux tax and any options or custom crap, and I think they're taking a beating on resale. In fact, here's one near me for the bargain basement price of $128K:<ul><li><a href="http://www.carsdirect.com/used_cars/vehicle_detail/ul85694444/MERCEDES-BENZ/CLK63AMG">RBM of Atlanta</a></li></ul>
