I happened to see one on the freeway a few days ago and was very impressed with the look and presence of the car. It is the hottest looking AMG I have seen yet.

I don't know......the new CL reminds me of an Acura RL in the back and a Scion in the front. Not a big fan of the new model.

The 63 gets a very worthy AMG kit.

I saw a charcoal one being driven by an old lady, looked pretty good...I think the darker colors work well with this body style...

cl63

I drove the car today, it's nice. Liked it much more than the SL55 I once owned. trying to decide between a blk/blk CL63 or a blk/blk BMW Alpina B7. I know 2 different cars, but both are tempting.

I love my 745li, only lease car I actually thought twice about returning. Might be a tough call.

I heard that the CL65 hits the floor in the US within a few days.

That's worth the wait to me, I can always use more torque but can't ever seem to stretch the legs above 140 where the 63 would shine.
