and CLS65 pics.

i think it will look better then the pics poeple have been posting of what it would look like without the tape.











When the new Mercedes CL will make its debut at this year’s Paris Motor Show, AMG will show their interpretation of the new coupe, the CL 63 AMG, equipped with all kinds of luxury features plus the 6.3-litre V8 returning 514 bhp – the same engine used for the CLS 63 which debuted just after the launch of the standard CLS two years ago.

Man it looks like a BIG car... great pics, thanks!

it's a cl65. I can see that from the exhausts. the sl65 has the same ones.

oh, yeah, and take a look above the license plate space. that black strip there covers a chrome strip, just like the new E-Class has one.

that baby's gonna rock!!!

i don't know - i will have to see this without the make up.

i wish it looked like the photoshop pic that was going around - with the s class front end (w221), sharp lines and low stance. that would have been saaawweeeettt

i hope we don't have to wait too long. some sources say the new cl will be released to the press in late summer, others say this would be next month when the new museum in Stuttgart gets opened.

i can't say when it comes out, but i hope for may...


get some new pants, guys... mercedes rocks

we will just have to wait to find out.

they should've kept the kompressor engine for new cl63 like they did with sl55 witch such a big car 516 trq would be a better choice.

Mean-Benz

IMO 100 Nm isn't a world! maybe it's just better because of the risk of burning rubber in first gear with the 55komp. with the new engine and the 7g-tranny it could even accelerate in 4.4 to 4.6 sec from 0-62mph.

auto motor & sport tested the clk 63 just some weeks ago and they say that the engine is worth it.

Lov2xlr8

where can i read that test?

Mean-Benz

i read the test in the german magazine auto motor & sport. after some time they launch the same article on the web site.
sorry, it's not there yet. If you speak german you could try to get the magazine in a duty free shop at the airport or so.

The car looks HUGE. It sort of resembles a big Chevy Monte Carlo.

Kev04C320

that just follows the tradition of the previous two generations of CLs, both of which were huge for a coupe.

i was at the ny auto sohw today, the lady at the counter told me that she thinks the new CL might have the same 55K as the '07 SL55. she also told me that one of the pictures of the new CL that are foating around is so good that MB thinks it might have been leaked. (i hope its the better looking one)

I can't wait to see the damn thing! Enough already the current CL is dying in the market time for some fresh mechanicals.

If this thing looks like the good pic floating around it is going to be hot as hell and probably take some sales away from the CLS....infact my good friend says that if the CL looks good he will trade in his CLS the day the CL is released. I've always loved the big coupe; if it looks good without tape it could be my next car in a few years from now...

Mean-Benz

if i don't like the cl after it's got released then I'll force myself to like it!
the new coupe is also supposed to be as big as the W140 coupe. the W140 was so huge that the german press baptised it "dinosaur". i hope the new one deserves this title as well

GTA7.5

I also agree that this is the CL65. MB wouldn`t present the CL63 without presenting the S63 first. This CL65 completes the 65 line.

The 63s will come a little later.

here it is. not a good translation, but it should work for you... Looks for the M157 Bi-Turbo V8 in the next generation E. The W212!
