Cle 53 engine/transmission
From what Ive read, the CLE 63 SE will have the same engine as the C63 SE - M139L
It just seems very weird to have the V6 in the 53. I guess maybe the reason they dont have the MCT in the 53, like AMPERAGE mentioned is to save it for the CLE 63 and entice buyers to that instead.
I do agree that the 53 looks to be the sweet spot in terms of price, V6 but still getting the body styling of the 63.
Will be interesting to see what the CLE63 comes out as and what the reception of the 53 vs 63 is,
I did not see a mention of the weight of the CLE 53. Was interested to see that.

the cle 53 base msrp at $72500. Though expensive it is considerably cheaper than the other vehicles in its class, the c63s, bmw m4, bmw m4 comp, Audi rs5, cadillac ct4 and ct5. Porsche
The cle 53 will probably do 0-60 in 3.9 seconds using race start. For most ordinary drivers, go faster is of no benefit.
