Not a performance comparison. Will probably only interest those that are interested.

When I was a kid I thought the CLK GTR was the baddest car of all time. I had an RC car of the CLK GTR that I got for Christmas and I felt like the luckiest kid on earth. That car will always be timeless.

I couldn't imagine the pure thrill of driving an F1. What a car!

Ray, I can see why you thought the CLK GTR was the baddest car of all time. Watching those three, the CLK GTR is my favorite. The sound of that engine....wow! Just thinking about spending 5 minutes in each of these on the same day, or any day for that matter, gives me goosebumps on goosebumps on goosebumps!

Great video!

The CLK GTR is just the alpha. Any modern exotic is lame in comparison

I love the CLK. This is an acquaintance of mine. Incredibly it is worth more now than it was before it burned up.

Burned up McLaren headed to England for repairs

An exotic super car that caught fire on Airport Boulevard in Santa Rosa on Monday is on its way to England for repairs at the factory that built it.

CLK GTR will always be my dream car, along with a Ferrari F50. Wish I had to money to liv out my Need for Speed II fantasies.

Remember seeing a CLK GTR at the auto show years back and always drooled over the GT1 cars as a kid. Lotus had their own Elise GT1 which is often forgotten and I believe the Jaguar XJ220 was in that class too? Seeing the XJ in person is a sight to behold as well.

Wow. Amazing collection of cars and what a great video!!

Damn!

The Dauer 962 is in the conversation too.

Lucky SOB to drive those. I’m really surprised they got to drive them in the rain.

Oh yea, forgot about the Elise GT1, also very cool. Time to Google it
