2007 Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG Road Test by Inside Line

[BMW130ii]

What a strange (stupied) comment in the video: " Non AMG CLS 550... and a 63 is no faster or quicker" ???

Differnce almoust of 150HP is no difference?!

[4MATICbenz]

@BMW130ii , from 0-60, you'd be shocked how close a much less powerful CLS550 comes to the CLS63. As much as I love the 6.2L AMG V8, I think it's a little low on torque in the low end (unlike the MB 5.5L V8 engines) and im skeptical of its max power output rating. A torquier CLS55 AMG with 50 less horsepower is faster from virtually any speed up to 150 mph. There are videos to back this claim up.

[proximer217]

ya good one ..one of the most liked cls

[jaymum23]

Give me this over any other super-sedan any day. In fact, give it to me in that same gorgeous color!

[TheMarkos427]

ma jebem ti mercedes FERRARI 458 ITALIA je zakon

[GTGTRR]

same performance numbers as the 5.0 mustang....YEE!

[johnnydrumma24]

a cls550 is 5.4 sec u dom ass...

[TheCarMasta13]

ITS NO FASTER THAN CLS550 ARE YOU SERIOUS?! 550 0-60 7.5 and CLS63 AMG is 0-60 in 4.3 seconds and thats notr much of a difference?!?!? Why would they say goodbye did it die or something its 50,000-90,000

[4MATICbenz]

@TheCarMasta13 , A CLS550 runs 4.7sec 0-60. The CLS63 AMG is surprisingly only a tiny bit faster.

And for God's sake, learn how to spell, please!

[zenenmoro]

@4MATICbenz ok and when the road keeps going? from around a 40 mph roll the difference would be huuge!

[4MATICbenz]

@zenenmoro , That depends on how long the race you have in mind is and on your perception of "huuge". From a 40 mph roll, im certain a CLS550 will hang on to a CLS63 for about 2~3 sec, and once above 65 mph the AMG will begin to pull at a rate of <1/3 car length per second. Even in a standing start 1/4 mile, the difference seperating a CLS550 and a CLS63 is only about 5 carlengths. It'd have to be a pretty long race (even at highway speeds) to see a huuge difference between the two cars.

[zenenmoro]

@4MATICbenz in a race....5 car lengths is a huge difference!

[vili567]

@4MATICbenz Are you sure the CLS550 runs 4.7 0-60 isnt it like over 5 seconds?

[4MATICbenz]

@vili567 , MBUSA (very conservatively) estimates low 5s for the 07-11 CLS550. But actual instrumented testing has the CLS550 at 4.7 sec 0-60 in a 2007 car and driver road test. Look it up.

[vili567]

@4MATICbenz Oh sorry i must i have thought of the CLS500 when i typed this comment.

[bsumattallica]

The car remains comfortable and compliant.... as mercedes is known for

[TheCarMasta13]

yep conmfortable and fast

[bsumattallica]

@thecarmasta

lol idk i've driven a couple benz's that had no go at all. the older diesels

[TheTubestar12]

Info was a little off, and they said goodbye? I didnt understand that part and there information wasn't slightly right, CLS550 is way slower also so not the best review.

[clubheadxtasy2]

my volkswagen cc kinda looks like one, a lil, eh not really. loll

[nedforrest]

hahah the CLS 63 is a second faster to 60mph

[TheTubestar12]

I think its faster by 3 or 4 seconds trust me im a car guy

[trav187]

God this journalist is a fucking idiot.. When i was 13 i could've done a better job reporting accurate facts about an automobile.. Just goes to show, if your going to be an automotive journalist, also be an automotive enthusiast, you can't do one without the other.. I've listened to this review about 5 times, and not only is he giving incorrect information, his oral presentation is horrible.. Damn, Insideline / edmunds.. I'll be his replacement, hit me up..

[nmac121]

the narrator is commenting on the top speed comparison. both the 550 and 63 amg are limited to 155mph. not the acceleration or 1/4 mile.

sure with the performance package you raise the top speed to 186 give er take in the amg but this car obviously did not come with the package.

*most 1/4 mile times stated are the test AVERAGE. its not likely youll pull of 12.4 EVERY single time in this car. unless you have a robotic foot calibrated to perform the same exact process each time.

[AMGFromHell]

Wait did the narrator just say the 63 AMG is not quicker than the CLS550?

What a fucking moron.

[san21893]

i had to listen to that twice haha

[IrishChris1979]

The CLS63 will smoke the CLS550 My father ran 12.3 @ 116 in the 1/4 mile at atco with this car. The 550 is a low 13 second car, fast but not 507 HP fast. These guys need to learn how to drive, 12.8 is by far the worst 1/4 mile time I've seen for this car. Try 4.1 to 60 12.4 @ 115 in Motor Trend & that's brand new. They get faster when broken in.

[AMGkompressor20]

i know right ! this guy pissed me off he was way off with the stats and 1/4 mile and then he says the cls 550 is just as fast wtf ??? and if they get 5 mph slower in the slalom than a m5 they are just bad fuckin drivers.

[TheCarMasta13]

i know they idiots ^3 amg is faster than 550 by like 3 seconds and they dont think thats a difference?!

[Grmcrsrlz]

Need to learn how to drive?? I understand that these guys may be retarded haha but this car is auto sooo it's basically, light turns green and punch it and thats about the end of it, any 16 year old should be able to accomplish that and get the same time with the same car. I'm just speaking on the 1/4 test. So yeah I don't know how they are getting different times then other reports on the car

[IrishChris1979]

Yeah, it doesn't make sense, the only thing I can think of is they must be coming off at an idle instead of power breaking it. Not sure if that's the issue but, it sure does make a difference performance wise.

[Grmcrsrlz]

Haha yeahh I hear ya, and you right with the power braking. Who the hell knows with these guys, seems like they can be a joke sometimes, especially with this review with some of the facts being jacked

[IrishChris1979]

OMG I just realized I spelled it breaking instead of braking lol. Oops

[Grmcrsrlz]

Hahah ohh yeahh you did, ahh eff it who cares, close enough

[Xevisberi]

Sexiest chassis sedan of the century!

[djburrondarize]

you should see the 2010 model!

[Atoweha]

where can you see it? im trying to seach for it but i cant find it.

[TheTubestar12]

ebay or ask your local MErcedes Benz dealer, if they get one they can tell you, or get a car broker

[swtendo]

Edmunds always gived the slowest times though this car gets 4.1 0-60 in road and track

[AKAbimmer]

That sounds right. Amazing speed

[MarinerMercury]

the 550 is 0,2 sec slower to 60mph hahahah... maybe a little expensive for so little extra enginevise

[sachakishlar]

yeah but, theres a huge defference than a 63 and a 550. a 63 is hand made by the amg devision in germany and is built like a rolls or like an s-class or maybach. and its really the mechanizm that makes it 26k more

[MarinerMercury]

i know, it is much better in that way

[snguyenn]

4.4 seconds for that kind of weight is god like.

[bob22bob]

..."fast and quick"...where did this guy learn english?

[Jeansie101]

I know, and "five hundred seven horsepower"...I'm sure it's actually "five hundred AND seven horsepower"

[Lucik27]

this is a 4 door coupe not a sedan like the narrator says...

[b0rncha0s]

how is the cls63 not any faster or quicker than the cls500, when it has over 100 hp more, yet its virtually the same vehicle?

[swtendo]

so the new naturally aspirated 63 AMG's are faster than the older supercharged 55 AMG's...more hp but n/a...thats a good gain

[StreeTRacR008]

Less torque though

[swtendo]

ya but still faster 0-60 so who cares lol
