Question, on the MBUSA site for the CL65 there is a small pic in the bottom right hand side. I was wondering if that is the new Flint Grey color? I can't really tell, but does not look like any other color that I have seen. Here is a link to the pic that I am speaking of:

I doubt it. One mechanic can't build even all of the amounts of engines of limited production vehicles alone. That's just one engine built by one of the mechanics, I'm guessing.

Yes, you are right.
Exactly- one engine is built by only one mechanic, but there are several engines built simultaneously.

I've just read SL65 AMG test in german version of Auto Motor und Sport.
SL65 -
0 - 100kmh 4,4s
0 - 200kmh 12,6s
0 - 400m 11,9s [193kmh]

Brakes:
100kmh>>0 - 39m [excelent!]

66dB noise at 100kmh

Price in germany 201 000 Euro.

This data may be not exact [especially 0-100 >> +/- 0,2s] as i don't have this magazine at the moment.

noiseless comparing to Ferrari 612 wich is also in this "AMS".
Ferrari 612 is pretty loud copue.
72db at 100kmh!!! [on lower gears even more].
AMS testers have complained of that.
Also the F612 is slower than SL65/CL65 AMG, has less room than CL65 and costs more
