Mercedes Benz CLK

The perfect luxury car rental for drivers who desire a fast yet elegant car, the 2008 CLK class is a smart combination of the compact C Class and the stylish CL and SL classes. Available in three different trim sizes as either a coupe or convertible, the vehicle is rear-wheel drive and comes with a high-tech seven-speed automatic transmission with manual shift control.

Featuring two-door styling and impressive powerful performance, the CLK class comes standard with stability control, antilock disc brakes, brake assist, front-seat side airbags and active front head restraints, making it a safe exotic car rental for both driver and passenger. The coupe is ideal for those driving in cold weather climates while the convertible offers a sleek soft top that automatically retracts when a button on the dash is pushed.

The most standard CLK is the 350, which produces 268 horsepower through a 3.5-liter V6 engine. The 550 is an upgrade of the 350 and has a more powerful 5.5-liter V8 engine that produces 382 horsepower. The most powerful CLK model is the 63, which features an AMB-inspired, 6.2-liter V8 engine that generates 475 horsepower. Reaching speeds of 155mph, the 63 is a great Mercedes Benz car rental for those who prefer a little speed beneath their wheels.

Each trim size features either 18- or 19-inch alloy wheels as well as 10-way adjustable power front seats, a 10-speaker sound system and a power-adjustable tilt/telescoping steering wheel. Fine leather upholstery and a dual zone automatic climate control system are also standard while the 550 includes paddle shifters for the automatic transmission and can be upgraded with an AMB-style body kit. The most extravagant model is the most powerful – the CLK63, which also feature heated sports seats, attractive aluminum accents and an upgraded audio system that includes satellite radio.
