OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE


Exclusive dynamism for the new top coupé from Mercedes-Benz: Powerful  
AMG styling for the new CL-Class


Stuttgart, Jul 14, 2006
For the new CL-Class, the ultimate luxury coupé, Mercedes-AMG has now  
developed two AMG optional extras: a powerful AMG bodystyling package  
and expressive 19-inch AMG light-alloy wheels with mixed-width tyres.  
These distinctive AMG components are available for both engine versions.

The AMG bodystyling for the new Mercedes-Benz CL-Class comprises a  
front and rear apron and side skirts. The redesigned front bumper  
with enlarged air intakes and chrome-ringed circular fog lamps is  
lithe and athletic in appearance. Typical AMG styling, with two  
slanted struts and a smooth transition to the prominent wheel arches,  
gives a strong air of confidence and emphasises the sense of width.

The AMG side skirts carry the muscular lines seamlessly through to  
the AMG rear apron. The rear bumper with its black insert and chrome  
trim strip flanked by tailpipes on either side creates a dynamic and  
exclusive impression.

19-inch AMG light-alloy wheels combine superb looks with optimal  
handling

Also available for the new CL-Class, as an optimal complement to the  
AMG bodystyling, are 19-inch five-spoke AMG light-alloy wheels with  
embossed AMG lettering. The high-sheen rim flange and spokes are  
always eye-catching, whether the vehicle is standing still or on the  
move. The 8.5/9.5-inch-wide wheels carry 255/40 (front) and 275/40  
(rear) tyres. The wide AMG wheels fill out the prominent wheel arches  
perfectly, giving the side view a sporty appearance.

AMG bodystyling and AMG light-alloy wheels available for both engine  
versions

Pre-orders are already being taken for the AMG bodystyling and AMG  
light-alloy wheels. The market launch date will be September 2006.  
The AMG components are available for both the eight-cylinder CL 500  
and the V12 top-of-the-line CL 600 model. The ex-factory prices are  
EUR 5,336 for the AMG bodystyling package and EUR 3,132 (CL 500)/EUR  
1,972 (CL 600) for the AMG light-alloy wheels (all figures include 16  
% VAT).
