2007 Mercedes CLK DTM AMG Cabriolet: Perfect for Quick Trips

This cabrio is based on the Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM AMG, a homologated race car that happens to be street legal to satisfy race class requirements. Some quick stats:

  • 5.5 liter supercharged V8 delivering 582hp!
  • 4 second 0-60’s, 200+mph top speeds
  • Full aero package included
  • 19×9″ rims in the front, 20×10″ in the rear!
  • Chassis, suspension, and body completely revised leaving little of the original CLK left.

As if the hardtop wasn’t galling enough, this version is a cabriolet, which I seriously doubt is for homologation purposes, and rather for the über-rich to add to their toy box.

One such owner, former F1 star Mika Häkkinen says:

The CLK DTM AMG Cabriolet is exactly the right car for quick trips around my home town Monte Carlo…
