CLS63 AMG



2010 CLS63 AMG

The 2010 CLS63 AMG four-door coupe is based on a unique vehicle concept which for the first time combines the elegance and dynamism of a coupe, the comfort and practicality of a sedan, and the performance of a sports car. With this unique combination, the 2010 CLS63 AMG is one coupe generation ahead. MSRP: $97,950

Rarely has passionate style been blended so seamlessly with pulse-pounding performance. The flagship model in the CLS range, the 2010 CLS63 AMG is powered by the AMG 6.3 liter V8 engine with 507 hp and 465 lb.-ft of torque. The high-revving, naturally aspirated engine now makes its presence known in an even more distinctive fashion: the AMG sports exhaust system's rear silencers deliver an even more captivating soundtrack through the two sets of oval-shaped, chromed twin tailpipes.

The AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC transmission now incorporates a function which blips the throttle automatically durning downshifts. This does more than just intensify the emotive driving experience - the virtually load-free downshift produces also leads to a reduction in load-alteration effects, which is of particular benefit when braking ahead of corners on the race track. The 2010 CLS63 AMG accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds, while its top speed is limited electronically to 155 mph.
