Thanks to everyone for the great comments and well wishes. I have nearly 1100 miles in nearly 4 weeks and it's time to get to the dealer for the computer hook-up, oil change and bolt tightening.

I never thought driving to work in the morning could be such an exhilerating experience. Every morning is like a "first day" with the CL as I see this "thing" sitting in the driveway, ready for it's morning romp. Everyday is exciting as I push the ignition button and the V8 roars to life. I am finally past the 1000 mile/85mph/4500rpm caution period so now the real fun is beginning. I'm out of the "C" comfort mode and now into the "S" sport mode with the tighter suspension and higher shift points. It works and it works well, as it seems to want to be pushed harder. After the dealer visit, the "M" manual mode is next, so then I'll start hunting some 600's. ( Note: The CL600 may have more torque, and it may be faster, but I can assure you that CL63 sounds better, looks better and for all intents and purposes seems faster. IMO ) More reports as the mileage increases and more photos as I now figured out how to post the hi-res pics!

Thanks !

The AMG setting has 2 screens. One is the "racetimer" for lap timing and the other screen has a digital voltmeter, digital water temperature and an additional and slightly larger transmission gear number display. The larger gear number display is quite helpful as the engine winds out very quickly, particularly in 1st gear.
