nope they are twin turbo v12's making 550 HP same taht they use in the maybach and teh s600 sweet engine, makes the s600 0-60 in 4.8 secs

Thing is heavy as all hell, but it's fast (4.8 0-60) too. I'd like to see the handling numbers on all the new FI Mercedes. I'll bet they're only good in a straight line.

Add about 900 lbs to that number and you have an accurate weight of a 2003 CL600.

nice car. you'd think mercedes would come up with some better looking wheels though. you'd have to put some brabus or carllson wheels on that thing

Damn, the door alone has more switches and buttons than my whole car.

Forget Brabus or Carllson wheels, Davins all the way!!! And 0-60 on that boat is 4.6 seconds, faster than the e46 M3 and E39 M5 (then again, it is a twin turbo'd V12)

holy f-ing V12..that thing eats gas..it don't burn it..it EATS IT!!
any ways..it's amazing for that car to make 0-60 less then 5 sec...
and also...max speed is only under 170 MPG? WTF? no way...
they lied

funny thing you guys are making fun of the AMG wheels, most of the AMG wheels are made by BBS, OZ Racing, Ronal, Roh, Momo, and a bunch of other companies.
