Question Reliability of the transmission of a 63 AMG

I'll add a new car to my collection, and i want to add either a CL63 AMG or a CL600, i post hete because i think theres more S class owners than CL's, but i have a question abut the reliability on the transmission in the 63 AMG models, will this transmission will be more dependable thant the regular 7G in other models non AMG? as an owner of a 63 AMG have you found any problems in the transmission? how mani miles does your AMG has? the car im looking at will be a 2008- 2010.

What does MCT means? it has a clutch like the BMW M6 or the Maserati duo select?
