Mercedes CLK

The Mercedes CLK 63 AMG is a car that falls under the mid size luxury category. However, it is a coupe rather than a sedan, and it is based off the Mercedes E-Class. The CLK 63 is known for its powerful V8 engine, which is more powerful than any other variation of the CLK. This car also uses the W208 chassis, and it can also come in the form of a convertible. The CLK line was first introduced in 1998. Unlike many models in the mid size luxury market, the CLK will only come with two doors. The car also shares some characteristics with the C-Class models.

When the CLK was first introduced to the public, it was the only company model that could truly compete with the BMW 3 Series. The company gave this car many E-Class like features so that they could attract those who liked the styling of the E-Class models. However, the CLK 63 AMG is distinct overall. Some customers were even confused by the introduction of the CLK, and the thought the E-Class was being replaced. Despite this, the CLK was widely successful, and the company sold 115,000 models between 1999 and 2003. The CLK coupe went through a number of design changes in 2003, and changes were made to the cabriolet in 2004.

The base price for the CLK models will start at about $46,000, and run as high as $62,000. The CLK 63 AMG has a seven speed transmission that is automatic, and it can be purchased in either a coupe or convertible form. It can produce a maximum of 481hp, and its torque output can be as high as 465 pounds. This has been used in Formula One due to its safety. It can go from 0 to 60 in just over 4 seconds.
