Todays Honey is Definitely A Treat!!! 2009 CLK 63 AMG

Essentially a de-stickered and emergency light-less Formula 1 Safety Car, the CLK 63 AMG Black Series features unique bodywork, 25 additional horsepower, an adjustable suspension and special trim.

Flared fenders give immediate notice to anyone that this is no average CLK. Those fenders are made out of super light weight carbon fiber, as is the front spoiler and rear diffuser. Those wide fenders hold new 19' wheels (9' wide up front, 19' out back).

Up 25 horsepower to an even 500, the CLK63's 6.3-liter AMG-designed V8 is powerful enough to push the CLK to 60 miles per hour in just 4.1 seconds, according to Mercedes-Benz. A larger, redesigned intake and freer-flowing exhaust help kick the power ratings up to truly braggadocio levels, as well as providing more audible growl.

The engine is mated to a 7-speed AMG Speedshift automatic transmission featuring paddle shifters. A six percent lower final drive ratio provides faster immediate acceleration than a standard CLK63.

Inside, AMG sport bucket seats with aggressive side bolstering and extensive carbon fiber trim differentiate the model from other more subdued CLKs. A smaller DTM-style steering wheel was developed specifically for the Formula 1 Safety Cars, so it makes an appearance in the CLK63 AMG Black Series, as well
