It is evident in the styling that the evolution of the CL lineage has, yet again, advanced forward and made an even more aggressive, yet classy statement.

In short, an improvement of an already well-defined design.

Congrats! Us Americans just have to sit here and drool until it reaches our shores and wait for it to put just about every coupe (with the exception of Astons, Ferraris, Lamborghinis) on the road to absolute shame!

Holy crap! I'm in love!!

I seriously never liked the look of the new CL, until now. In white, so nice! I already drool over a 2003 CL600 with the AMG body kit, but now I want this! I just can't afford it new

Hi, Tariq:

Congratulations on your beautiful new car. I have a CL 63 on order and I'm trying to decide on the color. White is quite elegant, as I can see from your car. Tell me, is that the Sport package I see on it with the side skirts and larger wheels? If so, what size are the wheels? Sorry for the many questions. Enjoy your car in good health.

That is the AMG package for non AMG cars. Your CL63 AMG will come looking like this if not better .

A white CL63 will not only get the looks but its drop dead gorgeous. The wheels will likely be some massive 19" rims.

It is not "[his] beautiful new car"... those are official pics shot my Mercedes Benz.

It is a CL 600 with the sport package... and I would say 20" wheels.

And congrats to you on your order of the CL63. Has your dealer given you any time frame on delivery ? I'm hearing it being moved up in the US from March/April to more like June/July, and as an '08. It sems that the early pictures of the CL63 have shown the 19" wheel that is similar to the S-Class/CLS 5 spoke AMG wheel. The newer look "open" 5-spoke is a 20" wheel. No one I have spoken to seems to know what the CL63 will come with.

It was already expensive then I can just imagine how much it will cost now. So how much are these badboys going for now?

Car looks great with the AMG package. I can't wait to see what we can do with one, a nice lowered stance, and classy but more aggressive wheels.

The CL550 starts at $100,675 and the CL600 is $144,975. There are only a few options for the CL600 mostly related to personal preference (iPod, wheels, designo).

These are really pricey, but gorgeous. Only Mercedes I guess. At least the CL600 comes fully done up.

That, my friend, is drop dead georgeous. Congratulations or a wonderful automobile. I had only seen it in black up close and personal. The white with the package is just as exotic.

Agreed, this is the first pic of the CL where I think its absolutely beautiful. I saw it in person side by side with an S550 and I thought it was an ugly mess, but for some reason the CL in these pics looks stunning. Maybe its the color combo, maybe its the AMG package, maybe its the white headlight corners (instead of yellow), or maybe its all of those things.
