I'm currently building a 99 clk430 to drift at the track and so far I've had nothing but fun with it

Well the C-class was offered with a 6spd manual for the V6 models till like last year, the AMG's aren't because benz doesn't care about building a Trans strong enough for it.
I've driven quite a few of them (I was a Dealer Tech) and they handle really good for what they are. All you'd need is an LSD and some coilovers. The V6's make plenty of power.

^That's unbelievably comical. Here's what I imagine went down at Mercedes:
Ve must attract youth. Ve vill build super-fast car! It vill veigh 5,000lbs and have automatic! They vill buy!
Well, at least they didn't make it FWD like Cadillac did so they still have their foot in the door. THAT'S where Cadillac went wrong. It's where every car manufacturer went wrong.

^ Actually the C class makes the most sense, its their most afordable car sold in the US. They are trying to attract a younger audience to the brand and their entry level car makes the most sense. I used to work for mercedes and we would sit through online classes about their efforts to try to attract younger buyers so what happened to Cadillac in the late 90's where all their customer base died.

Drifting an S-class Mercedes - I get it.
Drifting an AMG series - I get it.
Drifting a C-class? .... don't get it.
Drifting a chopped-up Maybach - Only if you're Kanye West and Jay Z

Oh well, good for Rhys.
A while back they even released a web app/mobile game where the object was to drift what I believe was an SL class around a snowy course.

I thought this was gonna be a preview of him actually running one of these. Kind of a let down.
