A Dream Machine

For those who desire the pleasure of driving a Mercedes Benz without paying for the exorbitant cost of a new car. This beautiful CLK 430 Cabriolet Convertible has only 47,920 original miles on the odometer. Never been in a wreck, always garaged. Looks and drives like new. This car is a real head turner and attention grabbing machine. Asking only $9,995.

The CLK55 AMG (W208) is a timeless classic

The CLK55 AMG (W208) is a timeless classic that continues to look better than the current year models. It is a masterpiece work of art and performs like a fast and furious beast.

She's a Beauty

My 2001 Mercedes Benz CLK320 is a driver's and open air enthusiast's car. It is so much fun to drive, looks so good and is such an incredible value. As Ferris Buehler said, "I recommend you get one."

CLK 430 convertible, great car.

It was a wonderful car, never a problem. The exterior style was like a muscle car and the exhaust sounded like a muscle car. I will miss that car for a long time.

A pleasure to drive.

The car looks great. It is a pleasure to drive this car. I have owned this car for 7 years. Every time I get to drive it, its performance amazes me. The CLK 430 has 8 cylinders but it is still excellent on gas. This model's styling is great.

Fun with the top down

It was a fun car handled great and the 4.3L got excellent 21+mpg highway mileage. Repairs are costly and issues can be difficult to diagnose unless you have the proper equipment definitely recommend.

/ ///AMG: True German mussel car

The 2001 CLK55 AMG (W208) is a very special car. Driving it today I get nothing but looks and thumbs up as it still holds its ascetic value. The car has a naturally aspirated 5.4L V8 That was hand built in the AMG factory located in Germany. It can produce 0-60 in less than 5 seconds and nothing beats the 20+ mpg (when driven respectively). The interior of the car seems almost factory new and all electronic features function normally. The ride is very sporty yet still comfortable. Practicality is not the cars main point as it only has 3 passenger seats and limited leg/ head room in the back. The engine is the cars most prominent feature and is notorious for being extremely reliable when maintained properly. I myself have never seen another CLK55 in my area so it's nice to know that the car stands out from all the BMW's and Audi's.The CLK55 is an everyday drive that competes directly with the e36 or e46 bmw m3. The CLK55 blows the m3 out of the water when it comes to ride quality and brute performance for a lot less of the cost.
