The only aftermarket warranty that looks ok is through Warranty America. Any feedback? Car seems to run great now but as with any car this age something is bound to go wrong. Since so few where made is it worth keeping as a collector or should l sell A.S.A.P.?

cl600 is a great car, but let me tell u something. l have a clk500, even though nothing ever happened to the engine. the sound system required some sort of repair, the transmission quit on me (thank god for the warranty, that l paid nothing to repair it), tires popped constantly (spent about 1000 bucks on tires alone) & the light bulbs seems to have rather short life span. so if l were you, l will sell that car asap. unless u really like the car. because l really love mercedes, both the performance & the stylish look. but judging from the clk. it is really a dissapointment. friend, if l were u, l will sell that merceds, & get a bmw.

Look out for the dealerships they will charge you for unneccessary work. l own a 1992 500SEL and have had dealerships in Houston tell me l needed new A/C and struts but l got a second opinion and my struts needed air and the A/C did not need replacing and l am not sure what you mean by ''B'' service but there are Mercedes Mechanics with there own shops that charge half of the labor rate dealerships charge.

No, the car should be ok, because it was made under the Daimler-Benz coroperation, the (2003) Clk has alot of problems anyway, it should be ok.

Warranty company l recommend is Winn great company really stand by there product, other I've seen and delt with promise the world and then run the other way when you submit a claim.
B service, mostly LOF and air and cabin filters, as you get up in miles 60-100k then fuel filter, plugs and trans service.
The cl is a good car , but as with any high priced MBZ things will be expensive.it is not a KiA
