Does the CL63 Have The Electronic Stability Program ESPÒ
if not is it Programable can it be programmed ?
the feature of the ESPO'
ESP SPORT" and "ESP OFF" – the currently active mode is shown in the central display of the AMG instrument cluster.
In "ESP ON" mode, the onset of handling instability leads to braking intervention at one or more of the wheels, accompanied by a reduction in engine torque. Briefly pressing the ESP key activates "ESP SPORT". In this mode the braking intervention to counter oversteer or understeer, as well as the accompanying reduction in engine torque, allows a higher dynamic threshold and, for instance, corresponding drift angles – which means that the driver of the C63 AMG benefits from considerably more active driving pleasure. ESPÒ is restored to its normal function as soon as the brake pedal is operated.
Prolonged pressure on the ESP key activates "ESP OFF". There is no intervention to control the handling dynamics, and no reduction in engine torque – thus increasing driving enjoyment even further. "ESP OFF" should only be used by experienced drivers on dedicated racetracks. In this mode too, operating the brake pedal restores all the normal functions of ESPÒ.
The system’s traction logic is active in all three ESPÒ modes. If one of the drive wheels threatens to spin, specific brake pressure is applied to create the effect of a mechanical differential lock. This means that the engine power is optimally transferred to the road.

accually i think they do, i have a CL65 on order and as soon as they revealed the C63, contacted my dealer and asked him if it was possible to add the ESPO on my car through the performance studio. Two days later he called me back and said it was standard on the 2008 CL65 ... this is strange i guess that they haven't mention any of this info so we will see my car will arrive within 2-3 weeks. Things will clear up.

...............Here is your answer contained in a quote from AMG press release for the C63.
will begin production January 2008

Just curious because I didn't know that the CL65-launch will be that early (2-3 weeks)..
