that is true about the badging on the cl class benz but on the smaller ones that come in a kompressor model there is badging on both sides even if it isn't an amg. that is a cl55 tho becuz of the times it ran and the lack of the v12 badge on the side.

true....didn't even think about that. saw a brown one at the mb dealership the other day and noticed the nice big V-8 Kompressor badge on the side.

It was a CL600. I was looking at the car in the staging lanes. It has a V12 badge on the side but you can't see it in the pic. I believe the S600 is the one with the turbo V12.....not sure thought, not a big fan of Benzo's so I don't keep too much track on them.

actually both the cl600 and the s600 come with the twin turbo intercooled v12. it is the same motor and horsepower and really pretty much the same car just one is a coupe and one is a sedan. both wonderful cars and i would like to own both.
