First Drives >> Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG
Quote:
Yes, another AMG, and no, there's no stopping them. Not that we're complaining. When the CL63 AMG arrives here next March it will be the thirteenth model in the AMG line-up (the S63, which we'll report on next week, is the fourteenth) and frankly, it's bloody marvellous.

This engine sounds gorgeous. We'll never know how it passed European noise regulations we'll never know, but every penny was money well spent.
At idle its low-rev wobwobwob soundtrack sounds bruising and menacing. In the mid-range those four exhaust pipes pump out a crisp and clean howl. But it's nudging its 7200rpm redline that the engine sounds its satanic best - a serrated banshee wail that can be heard for miles before the car rockets into view.
And it burbles and crackles on the overrun. When was the last time you could say that about a micro-processed catalytic-converted de-smogged car?
