06 clk amg 55s, good cars?
I found one in great shape and am thinking of buying it. 45k miles. Upgraded audio with bluetooth. Any tips or thoughts?

Have it inspected by somebody that knows these cars. The 55's are fast and get driven aggressively and are often wrecked. Given the relative value of these models many are drug out of the junkyard and given the quick and dirty rehab to be sold at a premium to an unsuspecting buyer.

As Dux said, spend the money & get it gone over from bumper to bumper. You will not have the experience a friend just had that thought he got a "deal" on an '03...I think it was a C230?..I forget....any way his $12,000 purchase just got $4 grand in repairs. Did you use the search function on this site to dig up previous posts about the '06 clk's?

Thanks! I found a couple threads, and they were positive. Thanks for the inspection advice!
