Mine is the matte bronze finish. I fell in love with the color combination ...originally anticipated the grey but that had never been confirmed. This color is stunning imho

C63 AMG / E3 HSV GTS
Absolutely gorgeous ... love it.

How I wish this wasn't a $300K+ car in Australia, especially when our dollar = $1.07US !!! Unbelievable ...

Enjoy.

Proof that giving, especially to a worthwhile cause, has rewards of its own which might just manifest itself in your driveway.

I salute you sir.

2012 CLS63

Hi Guys,

I can give you the update on the new CLS63 biturbo.

I do not have the preformance package but can tell you that the exhaust note is a little deeper than the current C63. There is no turbo lag, the throttle response is crisp. The torque is amazing, feels as strong as the SLS, although the car is much bigger than the SLS. Steering is perfect, a little lighter than the E63. Overall balance is excellent for such a big car. I loved the previous CLS and this one is better in every way, the styling is great. We have one in our fleet now and will launch the AMG Driving Academy Canada with several in the fleet in September. Stay tuned for details. We are going to have MB Driving Academy courses this fall at Mosport, Calabogie and Mont Tremblant with limited spots at each track. Besides the regular MB cars, we have the SLS, CLS63, 2 x C63 (with performance package) and the E63. Great chance to try and compare these awesome cars!

Incorrect. The 2012 E63 gets the same turbo V8 as the CLS,S,CL AMG models.

I've ordered an black on black CLS 63 AMG in Taipei, Taiwan. The car will come with "just" 525hp, and will be delivered in August. I am sure that I will lust for the Performance Package after driving the new car! People just can't be satisfied, right?
