Rather than having to just navigate the gallery, lets also put our cars here. Include mods and relevant info. As most of our rides are a work in progress, you can email me new pictures and descriptions as time goes by and I'll update them if you wish.

Hello fellow W208 friends,

My W208 was assembled on January 12, 2001 and I took delivery on March 05, 2001. I had to buy the car someone ordered and couldn't get the choice of options on it.

So far, I've only added OEM HID, AMG Pedals, European Front License Plate.

Here's a pic of my ride in progress. So far I've replaced the stock wheels and tires with 19" Moven RG5 wheels (19x8.5 front, 19x9.5 rear) and Michelin Pilot Sports PS2 tires (235/35 19 front, 265/30 rear). I've also added H&R Sport springs to control body roll and lower the car. The hood star has been replaced and I am now in the process of building a custom grille for it. I will post pictures of the grille once it's done.


Mods to come:

Carlsson RS Kit
Quad Exhaust
AMG Pedals
HPS Supercharger
Powerchip

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.
