New driver. So far do good.

I purchased this car from my dad 9 months ago. Cost 1k. Good condition. 76k miles. Salvage title. Well maintained. Though I've only driven it shortly... time will tell of its value. I truly enjoy driving it. I have never experienced a luxury car before. If I can drive it past 200k I'll be very pleased. 5 of my coworkers have offered to buy it.

1999 CLK320 Cabriolet

While it seems many are apprehensive about buying older Mercedes, I and my fellow CLK320 Cabriolet owner friends have been very satisfied, especially with performance vs. MPG. Most of us get 27-30MPG in mixed city/highway. Not that I have had many issues (thank God!), but I have found that if there is an issue or gremlin, DO NOT fix it right away. At least for my CLK320, it fixes itself more times than not. My 1997 F150, on the other hand, has cost me a small fortune in repairs.

The Best Car Ever!!!

I bought this car about a year and a half ago and have loved driving it. It is a great strong car that always has a little more power when you need it. It is a solid car that continues to impress me. This car is a tank that is light on its feet, beautiful to drive and look at and it has performed beyond expectation.

I Love this Car

I typically drive the clk 320 coupe and my dad's 08 c300 sports sedan. I prefer this as it is more fun to drive, it is just more zippy. The ride i comfortable yet still able to provide good feed back. I get around 22mpg (mostly city). I have the stock speakers hooked up to an aftermarket stereo and they sound better than any toyota. The car has a few minor issues but none major and this is to be expected of a 12 year old car. A well maintained one will be an excellent car for anyone.

Longevity with style

I've owned my CLK430 for 10 years now. I never expected the experience this car has provided. Other than oil changes and tires this CLK430 has never needed a single repair. The engine is responsive, intererior design is effecient and stylish. The only problem is the gas mileage. 13 years ago, gas was cheaper and the sub 20 mpg I get makes this a more expensive commuter. MB got ths one right!
