Mercedes-Benz unveils 2009 CLS facelift
It looks now like a strategy rather than an unexpected leak. Just a couple ago there were some photos of Mercedes-Benz SLK AMG 63 hours ahead of the official press release. Now everyone can enjoy two photos of the Mercedes-Benz CLS AMG 63 facelift on Mercedes-Benz Deutchland’s official Internet site. The difference is that we see the facelifted model on AMG version first, before the Mercedes-Benz CLS comes official, rather than the opposite as with SLK facelift.
The four door coupe receives small number of changes. Outside the AMG has a new front grille with three airflow sections instead of four. Also the wheels are changed from 18 to 19 inches. In the rear AMG 63 has a new LED tail-lights, a carbon fiber rear spoiler, a new rear diffuser, and updated exhaust outlets. The interior gats sporty boost with new sporty seats, Alcantara leather, racetimer and aluminum paddles.
Under the hood there is the familiar AMG V8 514 hp, 630 Nm / 5.200 rpm engine with AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC gearbox that includes AMG paddle shift from the steering wheel. The CLS AMG facelift needs only 4.5 sec to reach 0-100 km/h, with combined fuel consumption of 14.5 l/100 km, and CO2 emissions of 345 g/km.

Still hate the design. Time to move on from this half-sedan half-coupe stylistic garbage. It's not as bad as the Panamera, but I guess I'll never get the so-called "fastbacks"; I just don't see why anyone would want their sedan to look more like a hatch.
