"Only a street car in the loosest sense of the word, the CLK-GTR is nearly identical to its pure racing counterpart, which dominated the GT1 class at Le Mans so thoroughly that after a few wins no competitor wished to challenge it. Buying a CLK-GTR to use for lightning-quick grocery runs is a questionable plan, but for dominating your friends in Horizon’s Colorado, there are few street-licensable cars that can keep up, putting these drivers in a very exclusive club."—Official description (Forza Horizon)[1]
The 1998 Mercedes-Benz AMG CLK GTR - abbreviated as "M-B CLK-GTR" or "MB CLK GTR '98" and also referred to as "Mercedes-Benz AMG Mercedes CLK GTR"[2] - is a rear-wheel drive supercar by Mercedes-Benz.
It appears in all main series titles except for Forza Motorsport (2005) and Forza Horizon 2.
It is featured in Forza Horizon as part of the April Top Gear Car Pack and in Forza Motorsport 5 as part of the Long Beach Booster Pack.
In Forza Motorsport 7, it appears as a Showcase reward, and in Forza Motorsport (2023), it appears as a Tour Reward for Update 10.0.
Synopsis[]
The CLK GTR is a homologated road car based on the CLK-GTR GT1 sportscar that was produced in a limited production run from 1998 to 1999.
The exterior design remains mostly faithful to the race version, with a key difference being the hoop-style rear wing. Only the instrumentation, front grille, and pairs of dual headlamps are used from the otherwise unrelated standard production Mercedes-Benz CLK.
The CLK GTR uses a different revision of the M120 V12 engine from the race version that has an increased displacement of 6.9 L (6,898 cc). Also mated to six-speed sequential manual gearbox, it outputs 622 hp (464 kW) and 539 ft·lb (731 N·m) of torque.
In 2017, the successor to the CLK GTR, currently named the Mercedes-AMG Project One, was unveiled and will be put into production.
Performance[]
Performance figures for the CLK GTR include 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 3.8 seconds, 0 to 100 mph (161 km/h) in 8 seconds, and a top speed of 198 mph (319 km/h), although it can reach 215 mph (346 km/h) in Forza Motorsport 4.
Variants[]
#11 CLK-GTR[]
- Main article: Mercedes 11 D2 CLK-GTR
The 1998 Mercedes #11 D2 CLK-GTR is the track based non homologated variant featured in Forza Motorsport (2005).
Forza Edition[]
The Forza Edition is a pre-tuned variant featured in Forza Horizon 5. It features race upgrades, a chrome paint job with orange details, an S2 998 Performance Index, and a Speed Skills boost.
It is primarily unlockable as a Wheelspin reward, but has also been made available in the Forzathon Shop and as an EventLab reward.

Trivia[]
- The 6.9L V12 engine swap originates from this car.
- The stock front bumper and rear wing allow for adjustable aero, even though the Race Front Bumper and Race Rear Wing upgrades can still be installed onto the car with no performance changes. This is only possible if tuning is the same between upgrades.
