That they look good is undeniable. So guys, any official press info? 7G-Tronic in AMG Speedshift guise? No doubting it though, this engine is a masterpiece if not the best engine in the world then for sure it has to be the best V8 in the world.

Great vital stats, allied to an almost unbelievable weight of only 199 kg? Watch, this CLS 63 will be one deft handler too...

Its a beauty! I like the wheels. This may better compete with the M5/M6. Cant wait for tracktimes, stats, pics etc.

Awesome! I can`t wait for the CLS63 to be tested. It`s brother the E63 is in the wings with the facelift E. These models will present new driving dynamics,
bet on it when MB makes the announcements.

Whoa!! A CLS63 and CLK63 at the same time, somebody please hit me and tell me I'm not dreaming

Great news to wake up to. Now please let them premier the new CL at Geneva so I could see it at the New York Auto Show in April

I'm so late for work LOL

Something tells me that it will not have 7-G Tronic since it was not mentioned in the article. Perhaps, something more special during the unveiling?

Vivaki · 02-15-2006, 06:33 AM

Looks greaaat...but im still confuzzled as to what MB is planning behind the scenes with this early release of the CLS63 and CLK63. But for now lets just

"The high-performance engine of the new CLS 63 AMG is partnered by the AMG SPEEDSHIFT 7G-TRONIC transmission, which offers the driver a choice between fully automatic and manual shifting, with changes actuated either at the selector lever or Formula 1 style, by a press of the aluminium gearshift paddles"
