OK, total bummer. Just got a call and the car won't be ready until Monday. The blue tooth control module did not come in and the car is partly taken apart to install the module. They were expecting it today but it never arrived. I was OK waiting until Saturday but having to wait until Monday is just plain torture.

I was just at a track event with a CLK63BS. Very impressive performance on both the wet and dry track.

Black Series is ready for pickup. Just getting detailed!! I'll have pictures up tomorrow. Not picking it up until after 7:00 so by the time I get home, it will be dark.

Yes, I've followed the thread. 500 whp, pretty impressive. A good percentage of the gain comes from the reduction in unsprung weight and rotational mass of the rear brakes and those very light wheels.

Congrats Steve! Next time I'm in SF for work, I'll definately be looking you up!

I was looking for one up here in Canada too, but haven't had much luck. Actually, I haven't had much luck sourcing any higher end AMG's the last 2 months .

Thanks rage. Anytime you are in the area, please look me up. The car is pretty insane. I'll post some pics in a second here.

I know of someone selling one in LA for a pretty good price with only about 2700 miles on it. Let me know if your interested.
