The Mercedes-Benz CL 600 set new standards of what to aspect from a luxury coupe. As released, its Bi-Turbo 12-cylinder engine produced 500 hp (368 KW_ and 590 lbs/ft (800 Nm) in standard trim. Now, Kleemann increases power to 627 hp (467.6 Kw) and the torque to 769 ft lbs (1043 Nm) as a highlight of their comprehensive tuning prgram. The turbocharged V12-engine is fitted with a low back pressure stainless-steel exhaust system with two Trapezoid-shaped tailpipes to improve engine breathing. To minimize wheel spin the car is fitted with the Kleemann LSD locking differential.

Power is transferred to the rear wheels through a five-speed automatic transmission, reprogrammed with a Kleemann EGS (Electronic Gear Shift) module to fit the cars sporting nature. This modification adds faster gearshifts and the ability to shift through the gears via two bottoms on the Kleemann sport steering wheel.

Performance is breathtaking. From a standstill to 100 km/t in only 4.2 seconds and after 11.8 seconds, the driver has arrived at 200 km/t. Top speed is electronicallylimited to 300 km/t.

The Kleemann aerodynamic package is designed to the highest level of both form and function. Appearance is sporty yet elegant, and besides it's intrigue the package offers a performance advantage. At high speeds the front spoiler, with the built-in air ducts for brake cooling, reduces lift on the front axle thus further improving directional stability. The rear apron with the integrated diffuser panel rounds out the upgrade.

Another important customizing feature on the CL is the two-piece TM5 or the three-piece forged TS6 light alloy wheels, which can be mounted on the coupe in the sizes 18-, 19- and 20-inch diameters. The largest possible combination on the CL is the Kleemann TS6 alloy wheel in size 9.5JX20 for the front axle with 245/35 ZR 20 tires, and 11JX20 with 285/30 ZR 20 tires on the rear.

To further increase the already superb handling characteristics of the car Kleemann has developed an electronic body lowering module (EBL) for the ABC suspension, which lowers the ride height by up to 35 millimetres.

The safety aspect of a high performance coupe like the CL 60 is the Kleemann high performance brake system, which easily handles even the most extreme braking tasks. The Kleemann brake system features 396 x 36 mm vented and cross-drilled discs with six piston calipers in the front, and 342 x 28 mm vented and cross-drilled discs with four piston calipers in the rear.

Another focal point of refining the Mercedes-Benz CL 600 is the interior. Kleemann offers an extensive program for the luxury coupe. Included are such attractive accessories as illuminated entrance panels with Kleemann logo, and an ergonomic Kleemann sport steering wheel with a choice of leather, leather/wood or leather/carbon. The finishing touch to the interior is genuine carbon inlays on the dashboard, center console and door covers which creates a sporty yet comfortable and exclusive feeling. Virtually any color combination of the interior can be fulfilled.

That is a pretty good performance for such a heavy car.
Nice power too, LOL.
Henry, I think 3.1 is a bit optimistic.
