I hope I didn't get you wrong- it is a hot car. But a DTM? Anything with a DTM label and serious track cred should have a roll cage available as a factory option. They should have detuned it 15% from the DTM coupe, so the coupe could be at the top, then build 500 of the special AMG CLK cabs with the DTM body kit, and build us another 100 DTM coupes too!

Whether it fits in w/ the DTM philosiphy or not, that is neither here nor there, MB caters to your every fancy. Personally I really didn't like the idea of the cab. when I first heard about it for the reason that it didn't quite seem fitting as DTM tuned variant. However, looking at the finish product more thuroughly I'm very impressed w/ the work they put in, and w/ out a doubt, especially considering what I have read about the coupe, this is going to be a seriously good performer, probably a car that would clamp down on Ferrari's and Porsches and not losen it's grip. Much like a pitbull.

Yeah this might not be as "pure" as some would like it, but you gotta admit it is still one hell of a ride. A convertible that can likely dismiss most closed top cars on the track is something. Though I like CLK-DTM a great deal it is the F1 Safety version of the CLK that I really love. I hope MB takes some cues from the F1 safety car for the next generation CLK. The wheel arches work there.
