In the Nineties and Two Thousands, Mercedes-Benz was on a range-plugging frenzy. It wasn’t unusual to be faced with nearly twenty model line-ups, when you factor in the differing body styles such as coupes, convertibles, sedans, hatchbacks, wagons, and sports cars, and that’s before you go into engine and transmission spec choices! This 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG is from that era of choice, and it’s the last of the CL-Class before it would become known as the S-Class Coupe thereafter. A Grand Tourer and Personal Luxury Car, the CL-Class ran over three generations between 1992 and 2014, and was in essence a two-door S-Class. This car bears just 95,000 miles, and is of the most potent AMG variant you could buy at the time.
This 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG is from the facelift of the third generation, that saw things improve, bringing bi-xenon headlamps, a new grille, revised fenders, revised hood, and redesigned exhaust pipes to the table. Presenting itself in a straight black paintwork with the AMG styling package, it looks menacing in some ways, and yet approachable. The AMG badges, as well as the V12 Biturbo ones on the side flanks tell onlookers that it packs serious firepower, which we will get to in the engine section. Step aboard into the luxuriously appointed cabin that sports exclusive leather trim, and it’s more black. The dynamic front seats offer electric adjustment with memory, heating, and ventilation, and you’ve got the Driving Package, Active Blind Spot Assistance, and rear view camera as some of the tech toys, alongside the requisite dual-zone climate control, infotainment system and Harman/Kardon sound system. AMG-branded door sills and floor mats are present too, as is a V12 badge in the center console to remind everyone of the powerplant beneath the long hood, in case the 220mph speedometer isn’t enough of a hint.
We’ve already said that this 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG wears a V12 beneath its black suit, and what a V12 it is. The last of Mercedes-Benz’ swansong engines, the M275 AMG 6.0L V12 is backed by twin turbochargers, helping it to put out 621hp and 738lb-ft, figures that are utterly impressive in 2022, and must have been mind-boggling in 2011! The gearbox may seem a little dated, being a 5-speed automatic unit but there’s good reason for that, namely that Mercedes-Benz’ 7-speed box at the time was simply unable to cope with such power and torque! Zero to sixty is a 4.1 second affair, and top speed limited to 155mph, but one can easily imagine it cracking the magical 200mph barrier unfettered.

Luxury that is finely tuned over the years and made perfect is what the Mercedes-Benz S-Class is all about; it's the finest motor Mercedes-Benz can offer its clientele. Present today is what can be that refined perfection, taking shape in this 2017 Mercedes-AMG S 65 Cabriolet. Hailing from Tallahassee, Florida, and with over 38,000 miles reported on its clock, this gentle giant can be a treat for yourself and a weekend cruise done right.
Performance that is subtle is the right type of smiles per gallon. When you are loud and brash, one does expect the performance to back it all up, but if you choose to fly under the radar and still sting when heavy on the gas pedal, smiles per gallon quickly ensue. The S Class has been this silent warrior of performance; it doesn't stop there, as it is also the golden standard of Mercedes luxury as well. Present today is a fine example from the S class family and takes shape with this 2017 Mercedes-Benz S550. With a reported 65,000 miles on its clock, this clean example hails from Canyon Lake, is reported to come with two keys, Texas, and is ready to be the perfect way of getting about in luxury, style and performance.
Everyone knows about the Mercedes-Benz R107-era SL-Class that is one of the most definitive classics you can get your hands on. But did you know that there was also a C107 variant, with a fixed hardtop and a notably different upper body design? That’s what we’ve got here with this sleek white 1975 Mercedes-Benz 450SLC from Beverly Hills, California. This car sports a lovely four-seat tan interior, a 4.5-liter V8 under its hood, and has covered a decent 165,000 miles. That tells us that it’s not a garage queen, but a cruiser, meant for devouring hundreds of miles of open road.
