With its 428 kW/582 hp powerful AMG 5.5-litre V8 compressor engine, the newly developed AMG sports suspension, optionally available sports tyres and aerodynamics optimised in the wind tunnel the CLK DTM AMG Cabriolet, which is in a limited edition of 100, delivers a superlative performance: The AMG high-performance sports car accelerates in only 4.0 seconds from zero to 100 km/h, the highest speed is 300 km/h (electronically limited). This means that the new AMG high-performance car is the fastest open-top four-seater in the world.

"Exactly the right car for quick trips around my home town [of] Monte Carlo" is how Mika Hakkinen of F1 fame describes the CLK DTM AMG. He is one of the first people to actually buy the hot vehicle. What? You want one, too? Then get in line, because they're only making 100 of these beasts, and they're asking for no less than 277,820 euros ($354k) :P
