600hp Sl55 Amg

It will be the S65, CL65 & SL65 AMG's!

This was translation from German:

"AMG offers still 2003 to V12-Turbo! AMG is to offer the achievement-optimized V12-Turbo still this year in a Kleinstserie in the CL (C215). The CL 65 AMG is to have and over 600 HP carry 6.5 litres out capacity. The 1000 Nm border might be exceeded likewise. The SL 65 AMG and S 65 AMG would know consequences (likewise only in Kleinstserie directly over the manufaktur in Affalterbach). "

Why waiting for AMG, brabus has already released a 6.3 V12 with 630 hp and 1000Nm.

At this point we can only guess if the SL65 AMG models will make stateside.
