2011 Mercedes-Benz CLS AMG - Click above for high-res image gallery
Each day we're inching closer to the 2011
Mercedes-Benz CLS' debut, so the Benz Boys are hard at work on the AMG variant of its swoopy four-door which should go on sale soon after the new C218-based CLS hits dealers early next year.
The AMG version is expected to be packing
Mercedes' all-new
5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V8, putting out 544 horsepower and 586 pound-feet of torque in standard guise, and 571 hp and a axle-decimating 660 lb-ft of twist when kitted out in the in the optional higher-spec trim. Power will find its way to the ground through the new
E-Class' seven-speed automatic, while beefed up brakes and suspension components round out the high-performance package.
These newest spy shots give us a glimpse of those biggie-sized, glowing rotors, along with an
SLS-inspired fascia and LED daytime running lamps. The arching roofline doesn't appear to have changed much over the outgoing model, while the rear end gains a new set of taillamps and trapezoidal quad exhausts.
Expect the new CLS to bow at the
Paris Motor Show this fall, with the AMG variant - likely carrying the "6.3" designation - coming along quickly thereafter.
