2012 Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG

Mercedes-Benz are known for an extensive line-up of passenger vehicles to suit almost any need. Between 1992 and 2014, they sold the CL Coupe as their flagship grand tourer, for the well-heeled who preferred driving to being chauffeured around, and wanted a two-door S-Class to roll around in. The CL-Class nameplate came to an end post-2014, but the model didn’t die. Instead, it was incorporated into the S-Class line-up, as the S-Class Coupe and Convertible. What we’ve got on sale here is a 2012 Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG from the third generation with 47,000 miles on the clock.

Exterior and Interior

One of the defining factors of the CL-Class is the lack of a visible B-pillar, giving the impression of an airy cabin and generous glasshouse area. This 2012 Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG shows itself in a stylish black paintwork with AMG body styling and a set of silver multi-spoke alloys wearing low-profile rubber. It’s got cornering lamps as well, and at the rear, four silver exhaust tips proclaim its potency if the AMG badging isn’t hint enough. However, the place you want to be is on the inside, and that’s where this 2012 Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG continues the black theme. Up to four occupants can be accommodated. The front seats are climatized, offering heating and ventilation in addition to the electric adjustment with memory function. You’ve also got an AMG performance steering wheel, rear view camera, sophisticated infotainment system that doesn’t feel like it’s from 2012, a sublime Harman/Kardon sound system, in-dash 6CD changer, dual-zone climate control, active multi-contour seat package, AMG floor mats, and Designo alcantara headliner. There’s also some carbon-fiber effect trim on the doors and center console.

Engine

This 2012 Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG comes with a 5.5L Biturbo V8 that puts out 563hp and 664lb-ft thanks to the AMG Performance Package. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via an AMG Speedshift MCT seven-speed automatic gearbox. Zero to sixty is dispatched in just 4.4 seconds, and the aforementioned AMG Performance Package also raises the speed limiter to 186mph. When it’s time to slow down, you can count on the ventilated disc brakes to do the job effectively.
