Super TestCar reviews - Mercedes-Benz - CL-class - CL65 AMGMercedes-Benz modelsResearch Mercedes-Benz OverviewMercedes-Benz CL65 AMG has the power and price to indulge23 Mar 2005 By CHRIS HARRIS IF you can imagine a big two-tonne-plus coupe with the performance of a Ferrari, you’re starting to get an idea of what it’s like behind the wheel of the Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG. Introduced to Australia at the Sydney motor show in October, 2004, the $460,000 Mercedes uses an AMG-modified, 6.0-litre bi-turbo V12 engine to make mincemeat out of many smaller, lighter supercars in straight-line acceleration. It’s hugely capable in the tight stuff too, although there comes a point when inertia force must have its way. But 1000Nm of torque cannot be denied, and if in some cases you might be relatively slow into a corner, you’re not necessarily going to be slow on the way out.
