Didn't know and I am glad they got rid of it, a clock has no business inside the instrument cluster.

I think the CLK exterior still holds up well, but the interior is just antique compared to M3. Just look at those grandpa seats!



vs M3

I know the CLK is old, but there is nothing all that wrong with those seats IMO.

M

blasphemy! a 4200 lbs M3? disgraceful.

CLK for me. faster.

I would go for the CLK. The M3 should be a sporty coupe because the folding roof adds to much weight. The CLK on the other hand is a Mercedes and as such it is forgiven for not being sporty...

M Convertible arent worthy the M badge. They are over-weight and not a drivers tool like the Coupé. I would never ever buy M Convertible but if I was forced to pick one of these two, a M3 Conv. DCT would be my choice. With a Convertible you want to cruise and you like the attention from people, I think M3 is doing a better job in this comparison.

M3 is my choice here, but I would've preferred a conventional ragtop (with optional removable hardtop as in the E46). I think they missed a great opportunity by not making it a carbon fiber folding hardtop.

Yep, shift lights.

Btw, i hate convertibles and would never buy one!

To me, looks more like something I would want to lounge in. And that shapeless piece of plastic at the bottom of the seat...ugh!

sounds very pricey

I don't like the M3 convertible either. The performance is way too slow for what one would want for a high performance convertible.
