  • My Magma Red CLK - 2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class

    Overall the car is very good but very overpriced. I had an Acura CL-S before this car and have to say that the Acura is as good as the CLK and about $18,000 less expensive. Acuras V6 engine is only 10 hp shy of Mercedes V8. The CLK is a real head- turner and I get lots of compliments and looks from others.

  • 2002 CLK 320 Long Term Review - 2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class
    By -

    I have owned my CLK 320 coupe for 3 years. The car is now at 39,000 miles. The car started out well when first purchased but is now falling apart. The engine valve rocker arms have been replaced 4 times and are still loud when the car is cold. The front seat track has been replaced as well as both rear seat latches as well as the outside temperature sensor and all of the instrument guages. The tires wore out at 14,000 miles and the ignition wires had to be replaced at 33,000 miles. The undercarriage is now making a loud rattling sound like marbles in a bucket.

    The car is an absolute joy to drive. I have had some negative experiences with the electronics i.e. the passenger window express up/down feature malfunctions quite frequently. I have experienced a complete shutdown of the car while sitting at a stop sign. My biggest gripe is that the computer "forgets" that there is a CD changer mounted in the trunk and I have to pull over and restart the car in order for the computer to "remember".

    This car has taught me what a car should be like. I find ingenious features every time I drive this vehicle. You dont even need the 430 version because this CLK 320 car is a sports car in itself. Worth every penny!

  • Great car, fun to drive - 2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class
    By -

    Powerful car, a lot of horsepower. Fun to drive. Be careful during lane change, hard to see cars (blind spot) next to you. Have tried to speed to 105mph, very steady in high speed.

  • Beautiful Car - 2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class
    By -

    The car is everything I expected and more. Its luxurious, classy and sporty. Unfortunately, Ive encountered electrical problems (a defective wire) where the computer had a complete system failure. Mercedes did a great job getting the car towed and fixed. It hasnt happened again but the windows seem to have a mind or its own. They tend to close and reopen back to its original position. Still havent figured out why this happens yet.

    This is the one of the best buys Mercedes offers. The car is extremely well built and drives smoothly. My gas mileage in combined city/highway traffic is 25 mpg. The car is nimble and quick and looks great. Resale value after 5 years will be almost $26,000.

  • Bonnies CLK - 2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class
    By -

    Car seems to have tire or rim issues. Tires do not hold air on AMG type low profile rims.Top button and window buttons have issues. Ride is rough on long trips. Very hot with black top, seats, and exterior.

  • Top of the class - 2002 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class
    By -

    This is one of the classiest muscle cars you can own. The acceleration comes at any speed and blows away others on the road.
