This is a CLK forum, the answer should be "CLK55" for everyone

 

[Guest]

Do you want a coupe or sedan? 4 or 5 seats?

 

[Guest]

DEF CLK 55 WOW WHAT A CAR!! ALL I CAN SAY IS FAST!!!

 

[Guest]

A friend of mine had the E55 and found it not as impressive as he thought it would be in the corners. He felt it was too sedan like.<br> <br> It totally depends on what you want out of it.<br> <br> He now owns a Porsche Cabriolet and his wife is PO'd cause with two kids its too small!<p>

CLK 55..

1. I don't like the E55 interior that much.<br> 2. I don't need to seat 3 people in the back.<br> 3. I prefer coupes than sedans.<br> 4. I love the contours of the CLK.<br> 5. I have an E420 as well and that's good enough for me<br> <br> ;-))<br> <p>gk.un.org

They are so different...

They are so different, so it really depends on what you need. The CLK looks a hell of alot cooler, however, if you are the primary driver for more than 2 people you might think about the E55. However, don't buy the CLK55 thinking you are buying a sports car. It's a sports coupe but needs suspension work. Despite their 5.5. liter engines, both cars are a bit underwhelming stock.<p>

Believe it or not: Turns out an E55 is faster than a CLK55. I still prefer the looks of a CLK

 

[Guest]

How is that possible? It defies all logic. Unless the CLK's gearing is ridiculously conservative.

 

[Guest]

E55 has a few more horsepower, possibly from the straight exhaust path. (CLK twists around battery)

 

[Guest]

Yes it's true.

 

[Guest]

I know, but does that alone compensate for the weight difference? Maybe it's the wider rubber...

 

[Guest]

Pigman is right. It the same on BMW M Roadster and M Coupe because of the exhaust system route......

<br> the M Coupe had about 18 more hp the the M Roadster.<p>66-42-123-156.lsan.mdsg-pacwest.com
