CLK63 BS
No clue on a W205 BS. They're pretty tight lipped on product development. Any "disclosures" are probably intentional. My guess would be that the GTS would be the next BS. It's the more mature of the 2 in its life cycle.
As to the comparisons, probably be a question you'd wanna ask on the Private Lounge. Moderators are owners and enthusiasts. That 4.4 TT hot V is supposed to be as powerful if not more so than the NA M156. Then you have all the dynamic chassis controls. It's an analog to digital comparison.

CLK63 AMG Black Series
I just finished the ADA Pro event at Laguna Seca on Nov 16-18. Had the opportunity to run the C63S on the open lap sessions. I have to say the C63S impressed me. After driving the GT-S, E63 and SL63, the C63S is similar to the GT-S in terms of feel around the track. Obviously the C63S doesn't have the higher G-force and braking limits like the GT-S does but impressive none the less. I would definitely be interested in getting one after that experience.
I did notice the C63S having an engine/turbo/exhaust whistle at full throttle/boost but the GT-S did not. Maybe the sport exhaust on the GT-S was too loud for me to hear it. ;-)
I am a die hard NA M156/M159 fan and the M177 would be second on my list. With most all AMG motors there is so much more potential that can be achieved from them as it is a solid base to start mods from, the M177 is no exception. While driving the GT-S and C63S, it felt great but couldn't help thinking the M177 has more to give if it had the opportunity. Hence, the Weistec W.3 setup for the M177. ;-)
