A Tuned 2012 CLS63 AMG is a Loud Earth Jet - One Take

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The first-gen CLS basically introduced the modern four-door coupe design that's as common today as shoe laces. This second-gen 2012 CLS63 AMG started life with a 5.5 liter twin-turbo V8 making 518HP and 516TQ, and cost about $100,000 when new. It has a tune, some clean aesthetic mods inside and out, and is very, very loud.

    Yeah. Looking into both the 550 with a renntech tune and the 63/65. I’m I terrified at the maintenance? Yes. Am I also wildly irresponsible? Also yes. With a budget of around 25k and a reserve of 5k for stuff breaking I’m okay with the idea of any 63 or 65. But I love the look of the pillarless coupes. I don’t need a c class as they are just a little small for my needs.

I know many people who have bought them and been scorned cuz, they had to go to the dealership for little things and it eventually was just a money pit. Hell, get some tools and some Jacks. You'll be much happier snowing you have can skip $150+ oil changes and $2k+ brake jobs

    I personally like the sound of the M113K 5.5 supercharged Motor. That thing sounds incredible. I raced a SL55 in my old Camaro SS (2010 LS3 manual) and got destroyed. But the sound the SL made was incredible. Super deep and loud. Sounded like a plane in front of me. Everyone in my car started to freak over the noise it made. To the day one of the best cars I’ve heard.

    Technically he is right about the turbos acting like mufflers. In this old book Maximum Boost by Corky Bell.

    How come he has a large stand screen in the front of the car? Was that aftermarket? If so, where do you get those?

    had a 2012 with a Renntech Tune. Great car, Bought catless downpipes but took them off. Way too loud for me, Also the car ran very rich. It reeked like gas all the time. I dynoed at 589 whp before the downpipes.
