Mercedes-Benz CL Class News
-
It's fair to say the Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG is already fairly brisk. Aside from a few limited-run Mitsubishi Evolution models, it has the highest specific output of any production four-cylinder engine, all-wheel-drive traction and a lightning-fast dual-clutch transmission. MUST SEE: Size Matters 2: The Jumping/Drifting Semi Truck Is Back At Work In New Video The upshot is a 4.4-second 0-60 sprint and 155 mph top speed. But for Mercedes tuner BRABUS, those numbers aren't quite enough. Never one to shy away from inflated power outputs and ludicrous speeds, the high-end tuner has now worked its...

We brought you the full details on the new CL-Class AMG line back in July, complete with the impressive new 5.5-liter twin-turbo V-8 under the hood. Seeing it in person inspires a whole new level of lust, however, with the busy front end less noticeable than the gorgeously sculted curves of the roofline, fenders, and hood. Starting at a mere $150,250, the 2011 CL63 AMG isn't for everyone, but for those with the means to acquire one, it's sure to be a rewarding drive between the seven-speed SpeedShift MCT transmission and the available AMG Performance upgrade to 563 horsepower and 590...

We've said it many times before, but sometimes tuners just don't know when to leave well enough alone. The Mercedes Benz CL 65 AMG is a well-turned-out and highly massaged car in its factory-tuned form. Dressing it up with pseudo DTM garb and odd bits from discarded industrial window treatments isn't going to be an improvement. But ASMA didn't listen. The result: the PhantASMA65. From the inexplicably tall and broad central grille to the headlight-duplicating intakes on either side, the too-busy side strakes, widebody conversion, vents and runners and the massive rear diffuser, the PhantASMA...
