Mercedes-Benz CL 500/Mercedes-Benz CL 600/Mercedes-Benz CL 63 AMG/Mercedes-Benz CL 65 AMG (C216). 2006–13 (prod. n/a). 2-door coupé. F/R, F/A, 4663, 5461, 6208 cm³ (V8 DOHC), 5513, 5980 cm³ (V12 OHC). Coupé version of Mercedes-Benz S-Klasse (W221) with similar overstyled looks and distinctively shaped C-pillar. Larger than predecessor by c. 75 mm in wheelbase and overall length. Mid-term facelift in 2010 with new direct-injection 4·7. CL 500 sold as CL 550 in some export markets. Active safety and night vision among features. Very refined, quiet and well made, addressing criticisms of earlier Mercedes-Benzes. Rear seat room leaves something to be desired.
