Re: 335i or clk 550?

I'd say they're both amazing cars and you can't go wrong with either, I would just go on personal preference and which you feel is the one for you after a test drive of both.

If it were me, and I had the choice, I'd probably go with the beemer.

Good Luck!

I'd take the BMW on a test drive to the Mercedes dealer.
Park it next to the Benz, then I'd ask with both the salesman their " why should I give you my business over
them"

I'm sure in the end you've already made your mind up,
so go to the BMW dealer and get your new 335i and
keep it moving!

Re: 335i or clk 550?

I like the CLK550 more, but the BMW 335i is a better deal imo. It will handle better, straightline almost as well, just as comfortable and cheaper. If you really love the look of the CLK than nothing will deter you from buying it, but there is no denying how good the 335 is.

Re: 335i or clk 550?

why choose CLK550 when you can get a faster and more fun car for a cheaper price? Take the 335i besides CLK is as old as my grandmother.

Push personal preference aside and the 335 wins in a walk because the car is brand spanking new.

Re: 335i or clk 550?

As tempting as the 550 engine is, I'd get the BMW. The CLK is now old, and the BMW fantastic!

Re: 335i or clk 550?

yep who doesent want a 388hp V8 but then again..the CLK is gettin old..
and ive driven the 335 its one hell of a car.. plus it should save you some money..in the start..and more so in the long run...
so 335 is my choice

Re: 335i or clk 550?

Despite it's brilliant V8, the CLK has absolutely no chance against 335i - the all new car!
