a car that gets very poor gas mileage.
I've always said it and it doesn't get enough praise...the interior of the '12 CLS63 is absolutely gorgeous!

I've seen the red only in pics and videos. It does look good.
Wish I could see one in person but I have a feeling this will be a rare color.

a lot can tune them now.


OE Tuning will tune the new CLS63TT with performance package by next week.

they already tuned CLS550TT and got some nice gains. i think 48RWHP. so i think Jeremy can get alot more from the 63TT.

All the cars I am seeing here
do not have PP.

Do we even need the PP if the tune brings it up or would the PP plus tune be the way to go,,


The red one at South bay looks good andd has cf interior!

Why not get the PP and leave it alone & keep the factory MBZ warranty? I know everyone has to have more power but at some point...

Who am I kidding, you want to drag the car and get deep into the 11s...you'll be tuning either way!

I think with PP I could hit 11.99.

Thats good enough for me, lol.

I likely get the PP option and keep the car stock aside from wheels and minor cosmetics.

$7,300 for 32 HP.

+80hp/110tq | Special prices while in NY for NEW CLS

The new S63AMG has more power than the CLS63 w/PP, so yes they detuned it.

So Juicee...you have a delivery date yet?
