‘Frankly, it’s bloody marvellous. Muscular yet agile, sophisticated and powered by a magnificent engine, it makes the Bentley GT look frumpy and cumbersome. If you have a loose £105, 000 knocking about, there’s nothing that comes close to matching the CL63 AMG’ (CAR magazine, 5th October 2006)
Launched at the 2006 Paris Salon, the C216 generation of Mercedes-Benz’s long-running S-Class Coupe was styled by Gorden Wagener and Peter Pfeiffer. An extravagant 2+2-seater intended to do battle with the Aston Martin DB9 and Bentley Continental GT, the newcomer was powered by various V8 and V12 engines with the fastest variants benefiting from the attention of the Stuttgart manufacturer’s in-house tuning division, AMG. Deemed by many to be one of the greatest, naturally aspirated V8 engines ever made, the 6208cc unit fitted to the CL63 AMG was rated at 518bhp and 465lbft of torque. Allied to seven-speed automatic transmission, it enabled the super coupe to blast from 0-60mph in 4. 5 seconds. The top speed was limited to 155mph (though, 200mph was reputedly possible with the relevant electronics bypassed). As technologically advanced and cossetting as its S-Class underpinnings would imply, the pillarless ‘Benz also boasted a wonderfully cocooning interior.
Featuring the fabulous 6208cc V8 engine, developing some 518bhp / 465lbft, the CL63 AMG was a true ‘super coupe’. Finished in Obsidian Black with Anthracite Nappa leather upholstery and Piano lacquer Designo Black trim inserts, this 2007 example features autonomous cruise control, Dynamics front seats, the premium sound system, Comand DVD APS with navigation and has covered 86, 000 miles from new. It is being offered with owner’s manual and the service book plus the current V5C document.
