Nice car! But I hate that huge clock in the gauge cluster, seems like a waste of space to me.

Carlsson's name is well known around the Mercedes-Benz circuit, but allegedly their products aren't very reliable. If I had to do something to a CLK, I'd go find RENNTech.

Too bad there's no 6-speed manual, and too bad the build quality will likely be subpar.

i dont see what u guys are ravin' about.... on styling alone that car isnt setting any new standard. Granted the front end of the car is heaps better then the current clk but the 2nd half of the car looks like a civic coupe. (by the way, its the 2nd half of the car, the c-pillar, in the current clk models that makes em look amazing - IMO anyway - and now its thin and looks plain cheap and shitty)
And that front end styling is on EVERY mercedes now - from the lowest c-class to the S.... sure its a great design but mercedes needs to realize they're goin in the same sh*thole porshe did on their boxers and carreras (which STILL look alike to mE)

For those who dislike the new interior, u'd literally over the current one: plain, ugly, boring, unnecessaily complicated to operate and mercedes' overall quality being almost subpar isnt helping much

I agree with you there. The rear half on the new car just seems to high, but I'd still love one.
