I haven't seen these photos posted anywhere else, atleast i haven't seen them, click here to view the photos, and click to make them bigger

What a beauty!

 

What sharp pictures! I wonder what kind of camera was used to take them!

 

I was actually told my dealer that they expecting the first 63 AMG model to be the CLS63. But like I said, thats my dealer saying that...

 

Ricky, got your camera yet? Maybe that one would be something to think about if you could find out which one it was.

 

Sucks we dont get that F1 spoiler here in the states. Thanks MBUSA again for your idiocy. We appreciate it.

 

So the front spoiler of the 63 in the US will look like our 55?????

What will be the cosmetic differences between the current 55 and the 63?

 

I doubt we will get that F1 spoiler due to MBUSA's lack of intelligence. I doubt we will see any variation in body changes to that of the 55 series engines.

Oh well if the general consensus is that the new 63 engine is faster and better than my CLS55 with 030, I will be sure to buy it. I kinda wish they made the Pano roof an option on the CLS along with Solar Panels. I love the solar panels on my E55 and they have yet to fail like so many complained.

 

One that probably cost over four or five grand with the lens, and maybe eight grand or more with all of his basic equipment.....

Hearsay has it that back when I was a stringer photographer for AP (or was it UPI back then?) and I'd go in on an actual assignment for the local big metropolitan daily, that I'd go by the paper's offices and visit their equipment room becasue they had cases with $2000 & $4,000 lenses in them -- and that was a long time ago.... I wouldn't take any of their camera bodies or other equipment because I already had my own $2,000 camera and $1,500 flash unit, and $600 tripod -- and that was still a long time ago. Professional photography, the kind that you do for your 'job' - especially if it involves high speed subjects or even worse high speed subjects at a distance - requires Big Dollar Equipment.

I am sure that it isn't that much better in the modern digital age.

 

One thing is for sure, it was a digital SLR and not one of those digital P/S

 

Looks to be just a bumper, engine and transmission.

 

The 63 will get:

New more efficient cooling system
7-G Tronic transmission
6.3 liter V8 DOHC 4 valve engine
Bumper (maybe for the states, though given MBUSA and its uptight *** I doubt it will see the day of light on the western side of the pond)
Revised suspension and Airmatic programming
More throaty and free flowing exhaust while 50 state legal

 

I think the bumper will come through just for a little facelift and for a more aggressive look. It will help to distinguish the 63 verses a 500/550 with the amg package better. I wouldn't be suprised if soon one can order the 19's from the CLS55 for the 500/550 making this even more a need. If the SLK55 can have that bumper so can the CLS63. If you have researched the available vehicles out there in Autotrader, there is beginning to be a supply of CLS55 on dealers lots. The local dealer just got a black well-equiped one allocated by MBUSA that they could not presell before arrival. That detuned CLK63 will definitely sell as we all have learned that MB likes to underate there engines depending on which platform they put it in.

 

Don't forget a tranny that is almost already at it's peak as to what it will handle hp/torque wise. Looks like modding is almost moot on these new pups.
Maybe we will be able to get away with headers, but adding a Kleemann blower/or turbo system will get you into the "tranny of the month club"

New 7GTronic on the way soon thank God....supposed to be bulletproof.

 

Ewwww! I was a member of that club once! I quit and got the heck out of there as soon as I found out how expensive it was to remain a member in good standing! lol

 

I like that. And I would love to drive that on the 'Ring.

 

I can't wait for it!~! Gonna be fast and wicked!~!

 

Looks like some sloppy employee has been spilling gas while filling up

 

Whoaaa, nice!
