No matter how new or old, some cars exude an extravagant vibe and
make you feel more important simply by driving them. Blending a
stellar mix of power and performance, this beautiful black-on-black
2003 Mercedes-Benz CL600 comes to us with just 100,557 actual miles
on its odometer, and absolutely qualifies as one of those cars.
With a plethora of (then) cutting-edge luxury features and marking
the first year the CL600 changed to a more powerful forced
induction V-12, this car is one not to miss.
Inside, we find supple black leather with striking woodgrain accent
trim pieces. Both the driver and passenger are treated to 14-way
power-adjustable bucket seats that are heated, ventilated, and
massaging, and are connected to power-adjustable headrests.
Dual-zone climate control, an interior active charcoal filter, and
a power rear seat easy-entry system contribute to this car's
luxurious feel. An AM/FM/Satellite touchscreen offers Bluetooth
connectivity, while a power moonroof and electric rear sunshade
provide as much, or as little sunlight as you'd prefer. Add to that
power windows, locks, and mirrors, as well as a telescoping
steering wheel, and you have every amenity you could want from a
turn-of-the-century luxury vehicle.
Under that expansive hood, we find an equally expansive engine. A
big 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged single overhead cam engine pumps
out about 14.5 psi of boost to produce a massive 493 horsepower at
5,000 rpm and 590 pound-feet of torque at 1,800 to 3,500 rpm. Those
figures represent an increase of 36% and 51% more power,
respectively, over the previous year's naturally-aspirated CL600.
That power is routed through a smooth-shifting five-speed automatic
transmission, which sends power to a set of five-spoke 18-inch
wheels shod in 265/40ZR-18 Michelin rubber. At the same time, a
narrower set of 245/45ZR-18 tires handles steering duties up
front.

When new, this 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL600 was capable of running from
0 to 60 mph in the mid-four-second range and through the quarter
mile in the high-twelve to low-thirteen-second range. Along with
that speed, this luxury coupe is equipped with an Active Body
Control suspension, a four-wheel, independent, hydraulically
controlled adaptive system. Hydraulic struts are employed in place
of traditional coil springs, which help it actively control body
roll, pitch, and dive to achieve maximum comfort and handling. If
you want to feel just a little better about yourself, get behind
the wheel of this top-tier luxury grand tourer, and you'll see how
much fun commuting can be. Don't wait, call today!
