Does anyone know if they will release a facelift of the cl anytime soon? Being single I would much prefer a cl over the S.

Not sure if the current CL was released in 07 or 08. But the refresh cycle is after the 3rd year. So if the redesign was 08 then refresh should be due for 2011 model.

Nice Video!! I need an exhaust for the 600.

2010 CL65
Kudos to AMG for finally creating a good-looking sports steering wheel w/elegant stitching of the airbag cover

Hopefully the leather quality of steering wheel rim will be grippy and ergonomic

'10 (facelifted, midcycle revised) CL65 builds start in early July; at least as of last wk, MBUSA hasn't figured out exactly when in Aug will be US release of '10 CL65 from port

That S63 seemed to have a distronic system on it yet I saw bullet holes in the bumper. ???
Very nice video. Thanks for posting. I bet this thread stays on top of the list for a few weeks.
Personally, I like traditional fog lamps rather than the LED strip. I do like the LEDs just under the headlights for turn signals though.

100% agree with Trumpt1. I like the traditional fog lamps. LED strip is for Audi.

S and CL are always facelifted together. So sometime this summer we will see the 2010 model CL, which is likely to be changed to the S-Class Coupe like they did the CLK to E-Class Coupe name change.

From the looks of this video those taillights are going to be a very easy retrofit. Just need to make sure the LED blinker does not throw a code or strobe from the test pulse. Easy stuff.

The headlights/fogs are going to be a little more difficult because as of right now the LCM turns on the headlights when DRL is activated via COMMAND. This needs to change, chances are the LCM can be overhauled/updated and STAR system can do the coding.

The mirrors should also be a breeze as long as the protocol for auto-folding is the same.

I really like that rear bumper/diffuser - the car needs something like that, it's so muted in the rear.
