MERCEDES BENZCLK DTM AMG Cabrio (A209) 2006 - 2006

　　Apart from the 100 units of coupe versions, Mercedes-Benz offered the special series CLK DTM AMG with a soft-top version.

　　After selling all the coupe versions, the German carmaker started to work on its convertible cousin. This time, it learned from its mistakes, and the car was not that hard-core anymore. At least, it was offered with enough seats to get some company. Moreover, the power-roof was proof that the car liked the sunny days and the dry tarmac.

　　The DTM AMG version looked like no other CLK. Apart from the AMG spoiler with an A-shaped lower bumper grille, the car's front featured a three-slats main grille integrated into the hood. A set of moldings was applied on the front fenders to widen the wheel-arches. They were paired with another set over the rear fenders, which included fake air-intakes. The soft-top was retractable behind the rear seats. Like the coupe version, the convertible was fitted with a wing on top of the trunk-lid.

　　The carmaker installed four carbon-fiber seats in the car, and all of them featured three-point seatbelts. The back panel was made out of carbon-fiber on the instrument cluster, and the gauges featured white dials and red needles. The CLK DTM AMG was offered with a CD-Stereo as standard, but a more complex infotainment unit with Bluetooth and a navigation system on the options list.

　　Under the hood, Mercedes-Benz installed a 5.4-liter supercharged engine, which provided 582 hp. It was mated to a specially adapted 5-speed automatic gearbox with paddle-shifters behind the steering wheel and sent all the power to the rear wheels via a limited-slip differential.
