New Engine?

AMG55NJ · 07-16-2003, 01:10 AM

I was looking into getting a CLK55 but was wondering if they will upgrade the engine to the Kompressor one anytime soon. 367 horsepower is damn good but 469 would be a lot better! And make the CLK55 even more of a beast. I'm sorry if this topic has been discussed on here but I did not see it in any of the posts. Thanks.

I haven't heard, nor read anything about it as of yet ? Where are you at in Northern N.J. ? Not My CLK55 around these parts

I hope they do upgrade that engine. Might get an E55 instead but I really want a coupe! Decisions, decisions...

I'm from Summit...don't know if you have heard of it. Next to Chatham, Short Hills, near Morristown. We'll have to go racing sometime if I get the CLK.

What dealer did you get yours from? I was thinking of going to MOM (Mercedes of Morristown). You recommend any dealers with good service? Thanks.

I got mine at MB of FL - the MB of morristown is ok for service, they take forever to schedule any service for you..

Oh I am in Randolph, Near Denville - Once you do get the beast, let hook up :-)

I've read (previous Automobile Magazine) that MB is planning on a 6.3 normally aspirated engine for certain AMG vehicles.
