The car finally arrived in Dubai! It's owned by Ilyas Galadari who also owns a CLK-GTR SS. It doesn't have 1000hp at the moment. Gemballa are still working on the engine upgrade which should be done shortly. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Amazing, always loved the GT, the G class is nice as well, Ilyas owns several hotels in Dubai, so i think that a good way to spend some of the proceeds, Great cars, Great buys
I checked on Geballa's website... There's also mentioned a Mirage GTR. 1001 bhp and a top speed of 403 Km/h. Wonder if the Mirage GT is less powerful...
That looks sick. I can not wait for more pictures, and other colors. I always felt the GT was too tame. This definately brings it to the right level that Porsche was too conservative to do themselves. Peter Hatch
Wonder how much the that body kit costs. Must be outrageously overpriced... About the CLK GTR SS:http://www.*************/cars/2225.html "The second car, chassis #017, was modeled after the upgrade on #003. It came straight from HWA with the 7.3 engine and was the only car to officially receive the Super Sports designation. Painted in the unique red over tan combination, Mr.Ilyas Galadari of UAE-Dubai was the first owner. The car was then sold to an owner in Switzerland who took it back to HWA for a coat of silver paint and red interior. Next, the car was shipped to the USA as brokered by thecarexperience.com. They successfully imported the car, and it now resides in the US."
Man out of all the stuff I've seen and heard about this guy on the net, this one has to be my favourite. If you have to go to the origin of the name ilyas, then let me tell you its an arabic name thats used by christians as well.The guy is 100% local and if u want to go back hundreds of years then yeah he is considered iranian.but then again if you go back that far with the so called pure locals then you'll find the origin to be either from yemen or pakistan. you dont have to have bedouin names that almost has a vomit sound to it to be a dubai local!!!!!
"They successfully imported the car, and it now resides in the US." Is that correct? ive never heard or seen anyone mention that the CLK GTR SS is owned by someone in the States, does anyone know for sure? i know there are a couple in Florida but neither of those are the SS version.Just wondering if that is fact or internet Rubbish talk.
