Do visions of a speedy, near-classic German coupe set your heart a-flutter? This Portland Oregon two-owner, 2003 Mercedes-Benz CLK 55 AMG Coupe that puts out 362 horsepower might be just the tonic for you! The car was delivered to its original owner in Oregon on January 17, 2003, while the second Oregon owner bought the car in October 2018 and today, only has 80,360 miles.
This CLK is also sold on a clean Carfax, has always consistently been serviced at Mercedes-Benz and is included with a recent full service report. Recently, “Service A” was performed on 1/14/22 at MBI Motors in Portland, Oregon.
Made in January 2003 in Germany, this two-door is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (code DB-744). AMG only produced 761 CLK 55 coupes in the 2003 model year. This US market CLK 55 spent its entire 18 years in Oregon. The car's paint and trim are in overall excellent order; there are some scuffs on lower edge of front bumper and there is a clear bra installed The body is straight and solid, the cargo area is very tidy and the body-colored bumpers fit tightly to the rest of the car. This example has the AMG Styling Package (front spoiler, side skirts and rear spoiler) (code 772).
This Benz rolls on Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06 radials, size 225/40ZR18 in front and 245/35ZR18 in back. Each one is mounted the original AMG-alloy wheels. The tires and wheels are all in very good order.
Under the hood is a hand-built, 5.5L SOHC, 24-valve V-8 engine (code M113) with sequential fuel injection. M113s have aluminum/silicon (Alusil) engine blocks and aluminum SOHC cylinder heads with two spark plugs per cylinder. The cylinder heads have three valves per cylinder (two intake, one exhaust). Other features include iron-coated piston skirts, fracture-split forged steel connecting rods, a one-piece cast camshaft and a magnesium intake manifold. Backing the motor is a five-speed automatic transmission (5G-TRONIC) (722.6) (code 423). Driver convenience features include electronic automatic climate control (code 581), speed-sensitive, variable-effort, power rack-and-pinion steering (code 213), power four-wheel disc brakes, cruise control, power windows, power locks, power sideview mirrors, power + heated front buckets and Keyless Go (code 889).

Inside, the car's black leather interior is in overall very good order. The front AMG, multi-contoured bucket seats look good, though there are creases and wear visible and the driver's side seat heater is inoperative. The driver's seat, steering column and driver's sideview mirror all have memory settings. The rear demi-buckets are split 60/40 with a center fold-down armrest and there's an electric rollerblind for the back window (code 540). The complementing carpet looks great, as does the grey headliner. A four-spoke steering wheel faces the driver. The inner door panels appear in very good condition while the dashboard, with its VDO gauges, is in excellent shape. A console-mounted shifter and a factory infotainment system complete the interior
Competition to this Benz in 2003 included Aston Martin's DB7, BMW's M3, Chevrolet's Corvette, Ferrari's 360 Modena F1 and Porsche's 911 Turbo Coupe. Documentation includes original owner's manual + service records.
