bought this car new in 03 for over 60k. i guess all cars get hit no matter
what u got. Any way cant wate to post when i get my rl.

First, welcome to the board and please feel free to comment on your RL when you get it!
Second:
$60k purchase/$29k trade offer=48% residual value after three years.
That is AWFUL. Is it that the CLK is not selling? Or is there really high mileage? Compare to the trade I just got on my 2004 TL A-Spec:
$35.5k purchase/$21.2 trade offer=60% residual value after three years of ownership. And that was with almost 60k miles on the odo. And I predict it won't be on the used lot very long, either.

The three-pointed star on the hood doesn't mean quite as much to resale value these days as it used to.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I see so many of them on the back of flatbed tow trucks now...
