CLS 63 and 030 package

Does anyone have info on the release date of the CLS 63? Does anyone know if some, or all of the contents of the 030 package will be standard on the 63? The MB AMG site lists the composite brakes, which currently only comes with the 030 package, as standard equipment

The brakes are made of a dual rotor (floating hub) design, also the pads are a bit stronger meaning they can be subject to a bit more heat and tear. Making them a bit more high performance.

My CLS55 with 030 has this. The braking is better than the E55 for sure.

Nope the brake does not look the same at all. The rotors are the ones that are used on the SL65 and CL65. The calipers are the same as the stock CLS55 and E55 but with much much better pads.
