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.
Exterior and Interior
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.
Engine
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.
Mercedes-Benz created the CL-Class to represent the pinnacle of grand touring luxury, and this 2008 Mercedes-Benz CL 65 AMG Coupe sits firmly at the top of that hierarchy. Showing approximately 60,196 miles, this flagship AMG combines handcrafted V12 power with cutting-edge technology and exceptional comfort, delivering an experience that few coupes of its era could rival. Finished in a timeless black-on-black specification and equipped with sought-after features including Distronic Plus Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Assist, Night View Assist, Dynamic Multi-Contour Seats, and a premium sound system, this CL 65 AMG remains one of the most exclusive and technologically advanced Mercedes-Benz models of the late 2000s. With its twin-turbocharged V12 and limited production numbers, it continues to be regarded as one of AMG’s greatest grand touring machines.

The 1988 Mercedes-Benz 560 SL represents the final and most developed chapter of the long-running R107 roadster, pairing classic Mercedes-Benz styling with V8 power and a luxury-focused driving experience. Showing 111,950 miles, this example is finished in Arctic White over Alpaca Gray leather with a black convertible soft top. Its specification includes automatic climate control, a folding front armrest, heat-insulating green glass, a heated rear window, and a Sony audio head unit. With its upright grille, long hood, compact two-seat cabin, and unmistakable R107 profile, the 560 SL remains one of the most recognizable Mercedes-Benz roadsters of its era.
The 2024 Mercedes-AMG G 63 remains one of the most recognizable performance SUVs on the market, combining the G-Class’ unmistakable military-inspired shape with hand-built AMG V8 power and a luxury-focused cabin. This example shows approximately 9,814 miles and is finished in MANUFAKTUR Night Black Magno over a Classic Red/Black Exclusive Nappa Leather interior. Its specification is especially strong, with 22-inch AMG Matte Black Forged Monoblock wheels, AMG Carbon Fiber Trim, the AMG Night Package Magno, and the Exclusive Interior Package Plus. The result is a G 63 with a dark, aggressive exterior theme contrasted by a far more expressive red-and-black cabin.
The 2013 Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG P31 comes from an era when AMG was still willing to put a huge naturally aspirated V8 into a compact luxury sedan, and that formula is exactly why the W204 C 63 has become such an enthusiast favorite. This example goes a step further with the desirable P31 AMG Development Package, which brings increased output, a 174-mph top-speed limiter, a carbon fiber trunk lid spoiler, and red-painted brake calipers. Finished in Palladium Silver Metallic over Black leather, it also carries a limited-slip differential, Multimedia Package, Lane Tracking Package, and KEYLESS-GO. Showing approximately 115,211 miles, this is the kind of C 63 that appeals to buyers who want the old-school AMG experience: big-displacement V8 power, rear-wheel drive, and a chassis with plenty of attitude.
