Now, why didn't MB change the name back to calling it the 55AMG ?
 
Looks as expected. The AMG as always looks far better then the basic model.



Thanks to the folks at of 4WheelsNews, we may have an idea of what the facelifted Mercedes-Benz CL63 and CL65 AMG will look like. The site managed to get its paws on what looks to be some leaked images of the cars ahead of the range's official announcement. From what we can tell, it looks like the two heavy-breathing coupes will receive the Silver Arrow's new front-fascia treatment, which means a more upright grille, along with redesigned headlights and fenders. It looks like the hood will get a mild touch-up as well, and a more aggressive lower fascia with LED daytime running lights seems to have made its way into the mix.

Overall, the design is pretty sharp, and looks more at home on the CL than the big R-Class. We still don't know exactly what Mercedes-Benz will do when it comes to powertrain options. Our guess is that things will stay fairly similar to what's currently available, but some sources have pointed to the arrival of the same 5.5-liter V8 engine from the S63 AMG in the CL line as all but inevitable. If true, that would put the CL63 at 544 horsepower. Sounds good to us.

Very nice. I like the AMG models, they look classy and aggressive. S-Limousine AMG and S-Coupé AMG where always my favourite Mercs.
 
Much better than expected. I'm sad/angry that the wheel arch went away but somehow they made it work.
 
IMO the regular CL looks better in pre-facelift. I'm not saying that this is ugly or they've done a bad job, I just think that the old one was so handsome, sporty, elegant and sexy that you simply can't make it better in my eyes. On the other hand the new AMG looks better than the old one :icondrool
 
WOW..much more than i was hoping for:)

Lets hunt pictures:D

WOW...Good Catch! I actually didn't notice the front one was gone. Why would they do such a thing. Doesn't look bad, but looks odd compared to the rear. Glad they didn't mess up the S-class like that.
 
Well at least it's much more attractive in standard guise now. And as always the AMG is friggen hot.

Have they REALLY gottend rid of the front wheel arch? :t-hands:
 
So it looks like the final version will be called CL, seeing as this is the name on the front plate?
