Manual-Swapped Mercedes CLK430 – One Take

The first-generation Mercedes CLK was a handsome coupe/convertible and daily driver, but never taken particularly seriously as a sports car, mainly due to its old-school automatic gearbox. If you can't control your own gears, you simply can't get the most of out of a car. The owner of this example, David, wanted more out his CLK and so he grafted in the 6-speed manual gearbox from a Chrysler Crossfire, a cousin of the Mercedes SLK, and while he isn't certain how much power the gearbox will hold, he has completely transformed the CLK into a lovely canyon carver.
