Mercedes-Benz CL (C215)

Mercedes-Benz CL 500/Mercedes-Benz CL 55 AMG/Mercedes-Benz CL 600/Mercedes-Benz CL 63 AMG/Mercedes-Benz CL 65 AMG (C215). 1999–2006 (prod. n/a). 2-door coupé. F/R, 4973, 5439 cm³ (V8 DOHC), 5513, 5786, 5980, 6258 cm³ (V12 DOHC). Imposing coupé on the S-Klasse platform. Four round headlamps at front recalled the then-current E-Klasse. Unreliable, as was many Mercedes products around this era, with electrical niggles. Adaptive cruise control available, following W220 luxo-barge. Decent handling, nice to sit in around town, but a decent performer on the open road.
