Six models are available for 2002. The CLK-Class comes in two body styles, coupe and cabriolet (convertible). Each body style comes with a choice of three engines, with suspensions tuned to match: the original CLK320, the elegant CLK320 Cabriolet, the V8-powered CLK430 coupe, the CLK430 Cabriolet, the CLK55 AMG supercoupe, and the new CLK55 AMG Cabriolet. Just decide whether you want a hard top or soft top and how much performance you want. We are talking want here because no one needs more than the CLK320.
