New owner of a 2002 CLK430 coupe. I've had the car for four weeks now and love it. I traded my '95 Porsche 911 C2. I have to admit I do miss shifting gears and the acceleration of the 911, but I'm sure I'll get over that.

I love the CLK430 and only have a few upgrades planned.

- Full stereo upgrade with navigation/xm radio
- Suspension upgrades (springs, shocks and sway bars)
- Clear marker lights
- Cell phone and radar mounted and wired in
- Car cover

I would also love to find a way to upgrade my high beams and fog lights to HID's. I have the Xenon option now.

I love the color combination (Capri Blue/Ash).Orginally I went to look at a 2001 CLK55 that the dealer had. It was Black on Black. The main reason I didn't buy it was that it had more miles than I was comfortable with. The CLK55 had 62,000 miles and the CLK430 had 39,000 miles. Both were certified preowned cars.
