w215 2006 CL65 AMG BiTurbo V12 So. You want a Supercar. 2006 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG V12 Biturbo 604 Horsepower / 738lb-ft Torque Original Msrp $189,334 One of fifty two examples built in the world 57k miles since new. I am proud to offer the Ebay community my 521st listing in this forum, an exceptionally nice 2006 Mercedes Benz CL65. This CL65 is finished in #040 Classic Black with a complimentary ash leather interior. This is a two owner vehicle traded here in Memphis, Tennessee. This is a very nice W215 class Mercedes Benz. One might ask, "what, preytell is a W215?" 2006 was the last year of the production of the Mercedes-Benz W215 CL class coupes. This was a final bow to the old ways of hand production coupes. The W215 coupes were produced from 2000 until 2006. The W215 was comprised of a number of different models that shared the same underpinnings and body. These models were- the CL500 , the CL600 v12, the CL55 and CL63 and lastly the most expensive and powerful CL65. The 2006 models were the final evolution of this platform. The most significant changes to this production was that of a newer interior in 2004.The seats, door panels, and dash differ from earlier models. This 2006 CL65 is a very nice example of how well preserved these cars can be when properly maintained. Because of the high quality materials and workmanship when this car was constructed, this vehicle defies its age. The overall appearance of this vehicle would appear more as a 1-2 year old vehicle would. MB nomenclature is easily deciphered.. For example- CL65 6.5 liter V12 AMG twin turbo C = Coupe L= Lang (long) I have included approximately 65 pictures of this vehicle to my advertisement. If you have a standard dial-up connection it may take a few minutes for all of them to load.I would rather oversupply you with information than to simply post six pictures and three lines of text as most sellers will. Please be patient, as it will be worth the wait.You may have to hit "reload" on your browser if all of pictures do not display properly. Please scan down the page using your down arrow key... I am a frequent seller here on Ebaymotors.com .I have a great deal of experience with Mercedes-Benz automobiles. I grew up with them , as both of my parents drove them. I have now bought and sold in excess of 400 of them myself. It is my opinion that the older Mercedes were built to a higher standard than the newer post 2010 models. This is also the opinion of my MB certified mechanic whom I employ to repair my cars and ready them for sale. You just can't find a better car than the old Mercedes Benz models. Mercedes invented the automobile (Carl Benz 1899) , and they invented the diesel passenger car in 1936. This CL65 represents nearly seventy years of technical refinement. This vehicle was the absolute best that MB had to offer in 2006. The original window sticker price in 2006 was $189,334 . The 2006 CL65 is a very rare bird ,in that only 52 were sold worldwide in 2006, the final year for the W215 class body. To find a high grade example nine years later presents an opportunity to step back in time... I have bought and sold more Mercedes Benz vehicles than I care to remember. When considering a used MB only one thing should be important, condition. Condition dictates the value of the vehicle . Sometimes the year and mileage are irrelevant factors. If you parked two identical MB's side by side, let's say two 1989 560SLs. One is a one owner with 75k miles, no previous paintwork , dealer maintained, perfect books and records, new Michelins, no maintenance deferred. The other car is a four owner car with 75k miles, 2 paint jobs, no books and no verifiable mileage history, errant gold plated emblems, bald tires and the air conditioner is shot. To a dealer, the first 1989 560SL is worth $14,000. or more wholesale. The second 1989 560SL is worth around $3500-$5000 . My case in point- This 2006 CL65 is in EXCELLENT condition. It is well above the average car in EVERY respect.Please consider that this vehicle is a nicer car than most 2010 S550s that I see. This car will most probably be rather expensive, but please don't ever forget that you get what you pay for. I learned this the hard way. This is a wonderfully preserved CL65. Standard options are as follows- Leather interior, power operated 10 way heated and cooled front seats with memory system for two drivers, power operated sliding steel roof, ABS brakes, Anti-theft system, limited slip differential, SRS airbags , SRS curtains , and electronic stability control. This is a two owner vehicle. The car was originally sold by Fletcher Jones Mercedes to a gentleman who lived in Creve Coeur, MO. The first owner kept the vehicle very well maintained and moved to California where he traded it in to Mercedes of Encino when the vehicle had approximately 12k miles. The vehicle was then sold as a Mercedes certified pre owned vehicle to the second owner who lived in the Beverly Hills area. The second owner maintained the vehicle quite well at the Mercedes dealership, and yes, I have ALL of the records, and can email them to any prospective buyer. The vehicle never been smoked in, and it was garaged. From my careful inspection , the vehicle does not appear to have ever had any prior panel replacement, as all of the body panels still bear the original MB anti theft decals with the vin#. Also this vehicle is RUST FREE. The interior of this CL65 is nicer than I have seen in recent years. This is what I would consider a high grade example of the W215, this is not an ordinary , average car, it is in well above average condition. The vehicle has always been garaged and is completely rust free. The sun was rather bright when I tried to photograph the interior, and as a consequence the photos are a tad washed, if you look, you will notice a very well preserved interior. This is a great driving car. The front suspension is exceptionally firm and tight. There is no freeplay in the steering , and the car does not pull when braking, the alignment is crisp and precise. The engine is quiet , and the transmission shifts well and on time. All signs point to this car being able to log another 100k miles with relative ease. The prior owner was very careful to maintain the car to a very high standard, the car has always been serviced by authorized Mercedes-Benz dealers in an "open-checkbook" fashion. This vehicle was owned by a non-smoking owner and has never been smoked in. Pulse massage seats are a nice plus! The dash and doors are all leather wrapped and stiched. As any $189k car should have! Automatic body control was a new feature to the W215 series and the sport mode produces an amazing, taught feedback to the driver. Keyless go is a handy feature to have. You will also note the distronic distance control on the left of the console. Shifter offers the option of "C" comfort mode or "S" sport mode. Alacantara suede headliner is a nice touch This is the memory system for the front seats. On the driver side, this system memorizes the exact seat position and the power operated telescopic steering column. Seats are heated and cooled. The rear seat has tremendous legroom, and you will enjoy being chauffeured around in this stately old car! Beneath the Tri-star exists the Distronic cruise control system. This keeps the car at a designated length from the nearest car ahead while the cruise control is engaged. I have been around this star for my entire life. I grew up with both of my parents driving Mercedes-Benz automobiles. I was driven to school in one. At age 3, I even had the privilege of driving my parents 220SE through the kitchen of our home. I feel quite comfortable with these cars, and you will too! For those of you that are not familiar with the star, this represents MB's pursuit of excellence on Air, Land and Sea. The booklets and owners manual and related literature will accompany the car to its new owner. All of the original delivery material is still in place. The car is still protected by the Mercedes-Benz roadside assistance program. If you ever have difficulties with your MB vehicle, you can simply call 800-4-Mercedes , and MB will send a technician to repair your vehicle roadside, or in your driveway, etc. Mercedes will give you a jump start, change a flat tire, or provide you with five gallons of fuel, free of charge. Any other services will be priced to you by the technician, in advance. This service is available to any MB owner in the USA or Canada. factory option codes for the real enthusiasts! The trunk detail is quite nice, and appears to have never been used. Carpets are still clean. Spare tire, jack and factory tool kit are present. Tires are OEM Continental extreme contact and are new. AMG wheels have zero curb rash. Here is the vin# for anyone who should need it. Hand built , in place, at the Amg facility in Affalterbach, Germany, this twin turbo V12 engine produces 604hp and 738 lb-ft of torque. Accelleration is very brisk, zero to sixty mph is achieved in less than 4.4 seconds. Top speed is beyond my personal contemplation. This automobile was always well serviced at the Mercedes-Benz dealership where it was sold. Here is a partial download of the records on the car. This automobile is literally a wolf in sheep's clothing. I can't describe how amazing it is to drive this automobile. 600hp is something to be experienced. Almost nearly every automobile in your path is anemic in comparison to what this car possesses. A well intending Porsche or Ferrari is made to look like child's play at your whim. I can't convey how this feels. Upon driving this automobile, one becomes absolutely drunk with power.. The editors over at Edmunds.com decided that this was their favorite long term test car, and I can easily understand why! I operate my Ebaymotors.com business much like that of a mail order business.
