Overview
The Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG is a mid-engined road-legal version of the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR racing car that appears in the Asphalt series.
Overview
The Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG is a supercar/racing car built by Mercedes-AMG. The road version, produced from 1998 to 1999, is powered by a 6.9L V12 engine, and is the version that appears in the games. At the time, Guiness World Records claimed the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG as the most expensive production car ever built, priced at $1,547,620. This car's doors open upwards like butterfly doors instead of the doors being hinged to the front.
Asphalt 8: Airborne
The Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG made its debut as a playable car in the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG Cup, given out to the top 20 players. It is currently available for purchase in the garage.
The Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG has the third highest maximum rank of any Class B car, shared with the Maserati MC12 (1518), even though their starting ranks differ (CLK GTR AMG has 1381, same as the Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4 2013; MC12 has 1382) and behind the Spada Codatronca TSS, at 1519, and the Arrinera Hussarya and Rimac Concept One, both at 1547. However, with a Pro Kit, the CLK GTR AMG is tied with the Ferrari 599XX for the third most powerful Class B vehicle in the game, with a rank of 1611 (same value as the maximum rank of the McLaren P1 and Jaguar C-X75). The CLK GTR AMG features a fast acceleration and a powerful, long-lasting nitro, although not as efficient as the MC12. The CLK GTR AMG also features decent handling and a good top speed.
The Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG costs 
375,000 to purchase (same as the Koenigsegg Agera R from Class S) and 1,196,550 to max out (same as the Spada Codatronca TSS).
As of the San Diego Harbor update, the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG gains its own event in Season 5, an Infected event set in The Rose of the Desert. This makes the CLK GTR AMG the only car with its own event in the game that is an Infected event.

Trivia
- Despite being powered by a V12 engine, the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG actually gains the in-game engine sound of V8-powered cars like the Hennessey Venom GT, SSC Ultimate Aero XT, etc. This is because the CLK GTR AMG has a racing transmission.
- The Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG is one of the road-legal racing cars in the Asphalt series, not just Asphalt 8: Airborne.
- The Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR AMG's competitors are the Ferrari F50, Pagani Zonda F, Lamborghini Diablo SV and the Saleen S7.
