Default MB CLK 63 AMG Black Series

Does anyone have any experience with the 2008 Mercedes Benz CLK 63 AMG Black Series that they would be willing to share? I would be parting ways with my 1997 993 C2 if I were to obtain this car. Thanks in advance for any and all candid thoughts on the MB

Reach out to Graham from the UK whom owns the Zenith Blue 993 Speedster. He owned one about 4 years ago purchased new and loved it.

Sorry, edit: his was a C63 AMG Black Series so a newer model than what your looking for.

This was his actual car:

I haven't owned one but have driven one. German muscle car! Instant throttle response, gobs of power and fantastic noise. Totally different experience from a 993. I believe those 6.3s are pretty bulletproof too.

If you like it, I'd consider selling a 993 for one as long as you get to keep your tt.

I believe the early 6.3 motors have head bolts susceptible to failure. Gave many productive hours to this thread.

Thanks to everyone for their comments and impressions. The 993 TT is a keeper as I have never owned a car that I appreciate more. I am always weary of the rapid depreciation on the MB AMG cars, but the black series may be an exception. Best, Dennis

Just remember the clk 63 will suck up more gas and eat up rear tries.My clk 63 much more power then my 993 c2. The suspension is adjustable, ride much better.
