E55 gone, farewell!! Hello CL63 !!! Pics!!!

Guys it been fun for 3 years, E55 gave me more pleasure then I ever imagined...
But time has come to change (not upgrade!) to a CL63...
Picked it up last week, keyless go, night vision etc etc, its a real beast!!!

Need to start the modding!!!!











My elder bro's twin turbo

LOVE IT! Just curious why you didn't opt to go TT?

Maybe TTCL63 not out yet?

Good deal on the 6.3 N/A?

I am curious about this too. What's a few extra bucks to get into the 5.5TT, right?

OP, love the new ride. I'm hoping to find a deal on a CL65 at some point.

Wow the CL looks great.

To those asking why he didn't get a 5.5tt, I'm sure there is a big price gap between the 6.2 and 5.5tt. 2009/2010 vs a 2012?

Very nice! Congrats.
One of the nicest looking cars Mercedes has built imo.
The 997TT looks awesome too.

Is your bros turbo with PDK transmission or 6spd?

Arghh the CL is my favorite MB right now. Somehow I still prefer it to the new CLS. Classic and timeless but still very modern looking.

CL63, 997 TT, M3 DCT
Thanks for all the comments guys...

yes me and my bro do race....but he kills me!! lol

CL is nice, but no way 'feels' as fast as the 55 did, more of plane on wheels!
Sounds better, and interior is much nicer. I love the dynamic seats and night vision-cannot live without them now!

Thinking to throw a set on vossen 22's, but still trying to sorce some CF goodies first!

As far as the 5.5TT goes, the new CL wont be around till mid 2012 in UK, so this just had to be done!!

I like your description of the Cl feel. Remember it is an S class Coupe on a shorter wb than the S63.

Having driven in the UK I would stick with the stock AMG wheels ESP given the suspension system of the CL, road comfort, etc. AMG knows what they are doing, no?

Some of the Dtm AMG drivers recommend a slightly wider rear tire on the stock wheels if you are going to track the car.
