Tony de Wonderful Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 (edited) I spotted an SL500 in one of the car parks in South Perth today. 90's I am guessing? Looked ok. Makes 322 bhp according to wiki w/ a 5 lt V8. f**king A! /f**k me. I'm reading the wiki page on the SL Class. Some of the high end ones do 0-100 km/hr in the high 4's straight from the factory. Makes by humble GTST look agricultural in comparison. So much for hairdressers cars! lol Edited September 19, 2009 by Tony de Wonderful Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/288360-mercedes-clk230-kompressor/page/4/#findComment-4835092 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohno1 Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Haha imagine this CLK with a big block chevy in it ripping down the drag strip running 10's LOLI was thinking of getting the number plates KOMPRESSA Yeah i guess with a car like this i wouldn't plan on trying to rip a doughie or standstill - or i'd most probably try something the plates KOMPRESSR are hanging in my dad's bar... he's willing to get rid of them as he's got a E350 now, make an offer if you pick up a blown CLK Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/288360-mercedes-clk230-kompressor/page/4/#findComment-4835372 Share on other sites More sharing options...

syfon Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 Ok, so i had a look at the CLK and it ends up it sold yesterday. Soooo i went and had a look at a 2000 BMW 323Ci. It was fully optioned from factory bar the top of the range stereo. It has woodgrain, sunroof, leather, electric seats, etc. I have never been a fan on the BMW's but i ended up buying it yesterday and i must say i am very happy with it - it drives so smooth, the stereo is awesome, it looks cool! I'll get some pics up tonight - the car is factory standard the first thing it gets is tints, then deep dish rims and HID's Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/288360-mercedes-clk230-kompressor/page/4/#findComment-4844030 Share on other sites More sharing options...

syfon Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 Yeah a few other guys told me to go with the BMW's and i am happy i did as the BMW''s are much sportier and fun to drive than the Mercs - however i'll always like the Mercs lol. Bubba just sit in the leather seats and I'll electrically adjust them while i style your hair LOL Yeah i have to admit, i am happy i brought it. It has a fair amount of power, well enough to do what i need but it sure ain't no Skyline!

syfon Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 No angel eyes unfrotunately One of my friends has the exact same car minus sunroof and he recently installed aftermarket headlights with the projectors+angel eyes and he said its completley farked up his electronics for some reason. I also asked him if the install was done properly and he said he pulled it apart and follwed the instructions to be sure and still screwed up... So i'm just going to do like an 8000K HID kit, LED tail lights, deeeeeep dish rims and lowered. But the first thing it gets is 20% mirror tints Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/288360-mercedes-clk230-kompressor/page/4/#findComment-4844873 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ten Four Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 (edited) Noo! You NEED angel eyes, thats the whole point to buying a BMW! My mums ex-bf had a E39 530i and a E39 523i and put angel eyes in both, installed himself and no issues with either. But he did get the proper ones, costing around 1k a pair not the usual 300 ebay cheapies. I'll guess the bimmer's black?

syfon Posted September 24, 2009 Author Share Posted September 24, 2009 Nah the Bimmer is titanium silver Yeah i'll eventually get around to doing the angel eyes, but i'll get a piar of the proper facotry ones that won't screw up - i just don't have the extra $1K on me at the moment - i'd rather do the tints and rims first Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/288360-mercedes-clk230-kompressor/page/4/#findComment-4844898 Share on other sites More sharing options...

syfon Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 After roughly a week of driving i have chewed through a tank of petrol. I am currently averaging 9.8L/100km for city driving - i filled it up with BP Ultimate on Sunday night and have done 135kms since and still have well above 3/4 of a tank left. I have to say, for a 2.5L straight 6 motor in a car that weighs roughly the same if not a little more than an R33 Skyline, I am pretty bloody impressed with the fuel economy. The engine makes 160hp @ the flywheel so it's a decent amount and enough to get me where i need to go....it has plenty of torque so it's a pretty pokey engine I've been real busy lately so i havn't had time to polish the car yet or take any photos but i should be able to get it done next weekend as this weekend is a camping trip XD Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/288360-mercedes-clk230-kompressor/page/4/#findComment-4856263 Share on other sites More sharing options...
