"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. As part of GT1 rules, Mercedes was forced to produce 25 road cars for homologation. Rather unbelievably, the road car (straßenversion) makes only a few minor concessions to streetability, like the taillights from the CLK it shares its name with (but little else), and slightly softer and taller suspension--although trying to get over a speedbump is still a risky proposition. Retained are the racing gearbox, full carbon fiber and aluminum honeycomb structure, and an 6.9-liter V12, making performance staggering. The CLK-GTR is really only suitable for the track, considering that components like the gearbox need to be rebuilt at considerable expense rather frequently, so buying a CLK-GTR to use for lightning-quick grocery runs is a questionable plan. However, once on a racecourse, there are few street-licensable cars that can keep up, putting drivers in a very, very exclusive club."

Synopsis

The CLK GTR is a homologated road car based on the Mercedes #11 CLK-GTR 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.

Trivia

• 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.
