Evening all, I'm looking to buy a W216 CL, and was looking for little advice.
I had my heart set on the CL63 AMG, but prices seem to be quite close to the newer [non-AMG] S500 Coupe. Has anyone owned both and able to provide a comparison ? I've seen some Youtube videos which imply that the tech/interior of the W216 is showing its age (vs the S-Coupe), but interested in owner views.
I'm usually a fan of having the top-of-the-range models in any given class, but the prices of CL63s are making me think twice.
Also, is the later 5.5L W216 CL63 quite reliable ? I don't remember reading any horror stories, and would be keeping it maintained regularly.
Finally, if anyone is in touch with a car that is going to be sold, I'd be grateful to be put in touch with the seller.
Thanks in advance for any views.
ps. i did a search of the forum for "CL63" and didn't find any recent threads that addressed these questions, but apologies in advance if i've missed anything.
Thanks!
