Why do mine look different?

My 01 CLK 430 is the only CLK I have seen that has 3 small vents near the rear and 6 small vents near the front of the fenders on the the sides of the car below the doors. Why is this?

because it is AMG

That was my first thought, but I have been online for a while looking at my same year, make, model, and trim, and I have yet to see a single one with same vents.

i can only tell from the wheel rim.

even lorinser replace the side trim too.

So how can I find out exactly what trim I have?

Thank you very much for the compliment sleepwalker I will take very good care of it, but I'm courious and I have to ask......What makes mine so special compared to a regular 01 clk 430?

772 amg styling package - front spoiler, side skirts and rear apron.....What are these, and where are thay located?

yours is AMG package styling and got more horses in the engine than john wayne's ordinary CLK.
