Cool! that means lower prices on used CL65's....

Maybe you can then Kleemanize a CL69 and get 1700 horsepower...

It's pretty common knowledge that the 63 and 69 engines are in the works for future AMGs.
The 63 (N/A 6.3 V8 making around 500Bhp) esp. is coming very soon, first in the ML and then will be the top spec in the E-class. Most guys in the E55 forum agree. Lotsa guys are putting off purchases of 2005/06 E55s expecting the engine change as well.
The 69 engine (Biturbo V12, 675Bhp according to preliminary sources, circa 700Bhp from later sources) is touted to power the S69 first, CL and SL coming up later.

Hehe AMG2GO, I'll definitely be satisfied with 675+Bhp AND reliability AND warranty. No need to Kleemanize till a lot later LOL j/k
