Ive been driving this car for years now!! Its my moms, shes a tiny Italian lady in her 70's and I can NOT get her to give this car up. She LOVES IT!

1999 CLK320, 64k miles and VERY WELL maintained.

I haven't drove it in months; had it all week.

It feels like a Cadillac compared to the FRS. Heavy, soft and not particularly fast although it performs all-out very well.
Ive had this car well over 125mph through mountain roads. Amazing balance and nuance BUT not much fun overall. Maybe if it had a MT.

215HP/229 ft-lbs 3.2l V6
3700 lbs

This car was HOT in its time, just 14 years ago.
And it was fairly fast.

So tell me again how the 86 is a slow, underpowered car?
Im listening...

I was looking at that sort of thing before the FR-S.
Manual trans are so rare with MB post-80s that I gave it up.
