03-05 AMG Brakes vs 07+ AMG Brakes

I asked this question on the w215/216 forum with no luck. I hope you guys will be able to help.

I just inspected the brakes on my cl63 and to my surprise and shock the front calipers are nothing more then two separate one piston calipers bolted to one braket and fited with AMG covers that make it appear to be a 6 or 8iston caliper. WTF?... The rear is a much smaller one piston caliper, again with a AMG cover on the outside to make it appear like its a 2 or maybe a 4 piston caliper. What is this all about? Why did they not install the same 6 piston fronts and 4 piston rear calipers on these cars like the old cl55 cars had? I'm very confused about this right now.
