With MB’s Formula 1 team smoking the rest of the competition, and the success of the AMG GT S, Mercedes could be getting ready to build a new hypercar.

When AMG’s own SL600 isn’t fast enough, turn to the folks at Speedriven to set your hair on fire.

This is forum member “Kamilclk430’s” CL600. It has an angry mob’s-worth of horsepower, two turbos, a V12, and will run the quarter-mile in around 10 seconds. It also looks unbelievably sinister.

Next month, Bonhams is set to auction this pristine, uber-rare CLK GTR roadster, and the estimated price is uber-steep.

Mercedes couldn’t quite make the resurrected Maybach ultra-luxury brand work as a standalone vehicle line. Perhaps it will have better luck with the Mercedes-Maybach S600.

Getting behind the wheel of a fast car, such as a V12 Mercedes, is all fun and good until you hit a stretch of highway that has a 60-mph speed limit. If certain legislation passes in Montana, it looks as if that state will be the place to blast off in an AMG road rocket.

While most automakers are focused solely on turbocharging and displacement reduction, there are those few companies that are still attempting to preserve their larger engines for future generations. In this instance, it’s Mercedes.
