CLK-Class (C209) E63/CLK63 equiped with ABC suspension!?

[GTA45E]

I`ve been reading some rumers from MBworld.org that the CLK63 and E63 is equiped with
Active Body Control suspension like the S65.

If this is true than these cars are going to have very aggressive track numbers much like that butt kicking new face-lifted SL55 did not too long ago.

The CLK63 and E63 as well as the CLS63 are lighter cars so thay should get
even better track numbers than the f/l SL55! if thay are indeed equiped with ABC.

Well as much as both of those cars cost, I hope that the ABC is standard and not an option.

I'd say no chance of this being true. To re-engineer the E/CLK for ABC this late in their lives is cost-prohibitive IMO. ABC is reserved for the really expensive Mercedes models.

You might be right Merc1. I`ve been looking and I havn`t found any info saying that thay so far. I`m too lazy to look any ferther tonight.

OMG!! I can`t believe it, I had to see it with my own eyes, it`s true!! the CLK63 AMG really uses ABC suspension!!!

I think we can really expect very agressive track times! I`m sure the E63 and CLS63 uses ABC to!!

Well, lets just say I`m very proud of my favorite German car finally stepping up in the performance ring! this is very very exciting!

I still can't believe they've given the CLK63 the ABC suspension. I need to read about this is a press release before I'll believe it. Mercedes is really spending the funds if they've adapted ABC to the CLK platform. Dare I say the CLK63 will be a real handler with this suspenion??? Uh oh!

Remember this thread? it look like a 6er was visiting a family of CLk55s.

Thay might have been testing the CLK63 against the 6er! The CLK63 really might go head to head with the 6er now. No wonder that added so much power and the ABC set up.
