Been away for a while and haven't had the chance to post anything due to job change, property purchase etc.

Sold my Rotrex k20 dc2 and had a Dc5 for a while, which that had to go as well to realese funds to buy the Mrs a new car and some for the house.

Couldn't stay with my boring company anymore car so I treated myself to something German.....
Was torn between 3 cars,
E46 m3 manual coupe , CLK55 AMG coupe and a 911 carerra 2... At the end ended up with

A CLK55 AMG Coupe.

Might not be everyone's cup of tea but what a amazing car to drive both power full and fun for a rwd but and the same time luxury. The noise the hand built V8 makes is just incredible. 367bhp with 510nm from a V8 has instant power and the torque is unbelievable.

Having almost every option from Factory minus keyless and speedtronic it's an all around amazing performance car.

Couldn't stay away from the mod scene, so got some de-cats on it and new tyres all around. Got the interior trim carbon wrapped, changed grill and AMG bonnet badge.

Having some KW coilovers for next month, quad exhaust conversion, manifolds, bmc filters and a remap.

Contemplating wherethere to upgrade to 19's or stick with my 18's as it is abit ass happy ;)

Few pics as it stands after 2 months of ownership...

Will I got told around 400-410bhp & around 570nm from numerous tuners And I'm also changing soilnoids on the gearbox for quicker gear changes
 
Wow that's pretty good isn't it.
Bet parts aren't cheap for these lol
 
Haha got to be worth it though for the noise!
