Don't get me wrong, I love the CLK55, but it simply wasn't aggressive enough for my tastes visually. That said, the new quad exhausts in the rear are a step in the right direction - now AMG needs to add a super charger to get the HP to 450+ and we'll have a tight sled right off the lot.

It won't be a heavily moded CLK. Just little stuff with 19inch rims with street tires. Let me see how it runs on the 1/4mile track after mods. Maybe I could change your opinion slightly?
