The CLK GTR was developed in the late 1990s as a homologation special for the FIA GT Championship's new GT1 class, where manufacturers were required to build a small number of road-legal versions of their race cars. Racing Heritage (Born to Win) +Purpose: Created by Mercedes-Benz and AMG to compete directly against rivals like the McLaren F1 GTR and Porsche 911 GT1. Dominance: It dominated its debut season, winning the 1997 FIA GT +Championship. Its development time from a blank sheet of paper to a track-ready car was a stunning 128 days. +Race Car Chassis: It shares almost nothing with the standard Mercedes-Benz CLK coupe beyond the headlights, grille, and taillights. The entire structure is a pure race-bred design.
