OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE
Exclusive dynamism for the new top coupé from Mercedes-Benz: Powerful
AMG styling for the new CL-Class
Stuttgart, Jul 14, 2006
For the new CL-Class, the ultimate luxury coupé, Mercedes-AMG has now
developed two AMG optional extras: a powerful AMG bodystyling package
and expressive 19-inch AMG light-alloy wheels with mixed-width tyres.
These distinctive AMG components are available for both engine versions.
The AMG bodystyling for the new Mercedes-Benz CL-Class comprises a
front and rear apron and side skirts. The redesigned front bumper
with enlarged air intakes and chrome-ringed circular fog lamps is
lithe and athletic in appearance. Typical AMG styling, with two
slanted struts and a smooth transition to the prominent wheel arches,
gives a strong air of confidence and emphasises the sense of width.
The AMG side skirts carry the muscular lines seamlessly through to
the AMG rear apron. The rear bumper with its black insert and chrome
trim strip flanked by tailpipes on either side creates a dynamic and
exclusive impression.
19-inch AMG light-alloy wheels combine superb looks with optimal
handling
Also available for the new CL-Class, as an optimal complement to the
AMG bodystyling, are 19-inch five-spoke AMG light-alloy wheels with
embossed AMG lettering. The high-sheen rim flange and spokes are
always eye-catching, whether the vehicle is standing still or on the
move. The 8.5/9.5-inch-wide wheels carry 255/40 (front) and 275/40
(rear) tyres. The wide AMG wheels fill out the prominent wheel arches
perfectly, giving the side view a sporty appearance.
AMG bodystyling and AMG light-alloy wheels available for both engine
versions
Pre-orders are already being taken for the AMG bodystyling and AMG
light-alloy wheels. The market launch date will be September 2006.
The AMG components are available for both the eight-cylinder CL 500
and the V12 top-of-the-line CL 600 model. The ex-factory prices are
EUR 5,336 for the AMG bodystyling package and EUR 3,132 (CL 500)/EUR
1,972 (CL 600) for the AMG light-alloy wheels (all figures include 16
% VAT).
