Very exciting to see Jay and Donald favorably review this car. I have a 2007 CLK 550 Cabriolet in excellent condition that I enjoy very much. Very similar body and interior, probably a 2nd cousin of this car. Lots of fun to drive but expensive to maintain
I own a 2000 E55 AMG just like Jay referenced in the beginning of the video. It is indeed the perfect one car solution. Also, they are easy to maintain. Trim parts can be hard to come by but overall it’s amazing. I have 203k miles on mine.
Por favor team. Jay made a good point about if you could only have one car. Call me strange, but I would pick a V/W bus. Made roadworthy, and nice looking. Plenty of room sits high and I do not need super speed for my driving. Maybe I'm still in the Stuck in the sixties!
Interesting to hear Jay mentioning the e55. I remember how I briefly saw it several years ago in the background in his video clips and wondered why he would buy something that looks like a "bog standard" car. This is the first time that he mentions the car explicitly. In that regard, I always wondered what cars he uses for the aspects that he mentioned here (commuting, shopping etc.).
Jay, I drove a Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series on a pro race track, & to really appreciate that car you have to put new tires on it & take it to the track. ;)
I own and drive a 2007 CLK350, with the naturally aspirated V6 with 268 hp & 258 lb ft torque. My car is already a pretty dang fast car as it is. I can only imagine how fast a Black Series is.
Would love to see these two driving a W204 C63 sedan and hear their thoughts on the differences between it and the CLK63. Let me know if you need one, you can borrow mine. Its Red :)
What's the point of the camera crew when you hardly show their footage. Because Donald drives like my Grandmother we don't capture the essence of the car, so dwelling on their faces while talking is double the mundane-ness. Just keep it on the external shots
Black series for me is reminiscent of when you drove to Lemans raced and drove home. But!.... Where will she be in 30 years? Can you repair the complex electronics? In theme. I have a 89 c126 euro ruff. I can fix her. Cross continents at 240km in comfort. Aka...coupe also. To me the height of mercedes quality and legacy of Bruno design Respect but for me...give me something I can fix. 30 years from now? We will see. Think both u would agree.
Por Favor team. Another good one. Jay made a good point about if you could only have one car. Call me crazy but my pick would be a V/W bus made roadworthy and nice to look at. Sits high-great visibility-plenty of room. Maybe an upgrade to dual carbs for a little more Zip. I guess I always wanted to be a Hippy, looking forward to part two!
I think my one and only dream car would be a c63 estate, can't wait to see the DTM video! Audrain coming in with my dream line up of videos, A 599, a black series, then the DTM version!
TWICE in a month, does Jay Leno drive a CLK63 AMG Black Series. A reflection on how great this car is, and its legendary status.
I think the CLK 63 is by far my favourite 63
Love those AMG Mercedes. Wheel flares. Hot rod performance. And JL and DO in relax mode.👍🤠🍷👍
Two classy guys in a classy car...good stuff!
Clarkson & Harris both had one - fantastic collectable!

There's nothing better than listening to two old guys talk about cars...
Or is there...

I believe he's mentioned he uses the 500 Abarth and Model S often for those duties
Still a good looking car
Love this car

I just purchased a 2005 clk 55 AMG. I want to see you guys review that one. Really want to know what Jay thinks about it.
These are proper cars! Electric can never replace this.
Yeah, that's what the Stanley and White guys said about those gas powered contraptions...
Puts out some mighty fine ear candy. 👂🍭🎶

Respect but for me...give me something I can fix. 30 years from now? We will see.
Think both u would agree.
Very true! That's why we are here to keep these vehicles alive. Thank you for the support
Does anyone remember Driving Mrs. Daisy?
Jay in the passenger seat? Wow!

What happened to Al Fresco? Was he getting Jay's pizza? 😆
Is there a reason why you don't film on Ocean drive and/or Bellevue?
Glad to see you are back in Newport for the Holidays.
Wow, a drive in a DTM next. Thanks for this one. A great ride.
for a second i thought jay leno did a bing bong meme
I think Jay is drunk in this episode...
Ugly, looks like some kid's aero body kit and certainly looks like it rides too damn hard.
