"There are already a couple around, including the original, but none of them are very good. I'd like to see a new version with a convertable option which looks like the image with the top down"

I always wondered why the Mufflers on that car are so huge, does anyone know? They're like surplus 500 gal fuel tanks!

i love this car i wish more were made and it costed less but what car u do its still amasing

ive seen pictures of the ClK GTR flying and flipping .. but i cant find them now... can someone post some

It's the CLR that flipped, not the CLK-GTR. They are 2 different cars.

The pictures you post of are of the ltd. edition (25 sold) homologation CLK-GTR based around the 97/98 FIA GT car/Le Mans car. More so the 97 car as it has a 6.9 V12 and in the beginning of 98 they swapped it for a lighter V8 version. The CLR as MercedesAMG rightly said is a very different car and is the 99 updated version that flipped at LeMans. There is a video of it on Morpheus and Kazaa entitled "Sport - Mercedes CLK flip at LeMans"

shit! i just downloaded the crash...holy shit that thing was like a rag doll.. did the driver survive???? it like went over the hill and off the track and fliped like 5 times.. shit

2 million + down the drain :(

the CLR's flipped 3 times in Le Mans 99, with two lesser flips while Mark Webber was at wheel. in the 3rd and famous crash, Peter Dumbreck the drivers were very lucky and both escaped with just cuts and bruises, the same cant be said for the cars though:(

yeah
i am not 100% sure but i raced against him yesterday again and he had just been 3-4 days in spain testing.
he is a really nice fellow!

just to clarify this...IT WAS NOT THE CLK GTR WHICH FLIPPED AT LE MANS N 1999 IT WAS THE CLR....the GTR raced and won the 1997 fia gt championship and i cant remember its result at le mans, the CLR just raced at le mans and never agen for obviosu reasons!
