Bagged Mercedes CL55 AMG - One Take
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The CL range of Mercedes full-size coupes has always been a guilty pleasure of mine. Their pace on the road is only beaten by the pace at which they depreciate! I've always wondered who bought these things used and what they did with them. This 2004 model CL55 was bought from the owner's father, and to fix the constant irritation of faulty Active Body Control suspension, he replaced it with AccuAir Air Suspension!

This guy just did all the right things to his CL55 ..... nice.
Owner is awesome. Definitely knows his stuff.
AMG's are one of the meanest sounding engines
Looks like Moby owns a CL55 AMG good taste

I have a pristine 2003 CL 55 AMG that was owned by a retired U.S. Navy Master Chief and having served with a number of those guys I know them to be very detail oriented men who do everything by the book. After speaking with the man I discovered he had every single service record going back to the day the war came off the boat from Germany. I drove the car and after looking the car over carefully and checking the records I bought the car. It is, without question, is the finest CL 55 AMG I have ever seen. I really appreciated that the car is a true "Silver Arrow". I love the car and really love driving it. It is very much a great autobahn cruiser that is superb on long road trips with my wife. My wife dtives a 2009 CLK 550, with an AMG appearance group and is no slouch either with nearly 400 horsepower. I have loved Mercedes Benz cars since my first car, a 1956 Mercedes Benz 190 4 door sedan Pontoon, that my Pop and I restored. They are all great cars.
Wow, much bags, such stance, so slick. Amaze. Very like.

I love it when even petrolheads like Matt pause the "engine this exhaust that" and take a moment to appreciate an interior like that. IMO it's a big part of the driving experience, for a fact I'm still searching for how a late90s-early2000 Benz makes you feel, missing that in every other car I drive.

If you live somewhere warm the early 2000's 230 SLK Kompressor (4 cyl supercharged) is a very fun car in a manual. Just throwing on a pulley nets you some extra horsepower too. Kind of like a heavier Miata with a much nicer interior and more dailyable ride.

Interior quality is hugely lacking in most cars. I moved from an 06 merc cls55 AMG into a 2012 Cadillac V and what a huge disappointment it was in regards to the interior

Robert Henderson German to american, it was to be expected to be honest. Although that happens with newer cars even inside the same brand. I had an E class from that era, with very similar interior. Good, not great compared to a `98 E class I had. They didn't care about weight back then, and I certainly much prefer a genuine metal inside door handle rather than the chrome finished plastic my '07 had, just to give you an example.
that AMG merc V8 sound is always the best! so sick.
"Sorry this video is longer than usual"? That was such a cool ride with such a cool mood from both of you that even if it was 60' it would still be a pleasure to watch. Thanks and waiting for the next one!
That CL sitting lower looks amazing. Beautiful lines that now can be shown off. Wow, this mans car is awesome.
Awesome video Matt. Love the CL55
That AMG grumble is awesome.
dude kept it clean..very nice
A true masterpiece. One of the nicest Mercs there have ever been.
Really like the owner if this CL, and like always Matt... fantastic job with the review, very genuine &&passion
One of the greatest cars ever built imo
The ride is super nice, I like that kind of old-school, which is not that old yet, as it has all gadgets you may need, it goes, it is so shiny , you can see the polish on paint when they were showing the door handles. The car is very nice, and this one seems to be nicely preserved, with nicely modded suspension
Those Kleemann wheels look amazing!
Pretty solid car! Easy to see why Ed Bolian used one for his coast to coast run. And those doors are super cool!
Am I the only one who doesn't like that steering wheel Mercedes put into almost all their cars back then?

Looks like a great car to cruise around in doing whatever you gotta do while still being able to itch that bug for the accelerator when you get it. Straight clear roads are so inviting. They mightaswell call them the Sirens of the land.
Well done man!! This car is amazing!
Saw this car standing in the background when you drove the 900HP+ SLS AMG and was hoping you could cover it someday. Great, another thing off the list then! Thanks for the cool video!

Clean. Sounds like a neat car to eat up miles of highway in comfort, class, and great speeds. Good job.
Hey, the car is only slammed when parked, it's not like he's driving it around like that, jeeez. This car lends itself to air suspension and I really like full sized MB coupes and it looks like he has Lorinser (spelling) wheels on it and they look good to me.

I love these cars!! I've wanted to buy one so bad, but get scared off cause my pockets aren't deep enough for repairs and maintenance. I've heard quite a few stories from folks I knew. They're not expensive to buy used. But they can be a nightmare to maintain if you don't have the right connection to a repair shop. It can sit in shops for weeks waiting on parts.
i like the extra drive by shots!
Love the CL good job on the suspension and wheels...they're not blingy and look fantastic. Time to buy my father in laws S500
Damn you Matt!!! I always end up at a cars.com or autotrader looking for the featured car whenever I watch one of your videos. And now I can't sleep.
This car is just beautiful
Damn!!! Sweet ride, looks awesome 😊👍
That is a super clean interior
I've always loved cars but kind of fell away from it in recent years. The Smoking Tire has got me really excited about cars again. Lately, I've been burning up the Internet looking at websites like Kelly Blue Book, Wikipedia, Carsforsale.com, wheelwell.com and KZread to try to figure out what kind of car project I should take up next. In this video alone, the reference to AccuAir is golden. I checked out their website and found really awesome company with, what looks like, even more, awesome products. Thanks Matt.
Nice car, at least the owner is honest about repair cost.
Another fantastic One Take Matt! :-D
that glass AMG logo in the boot is awesome!
Hello Moby. Nice car.
That is one nice cruising vehicle.
My favorite Merc. Great video for a great car.
Beautiful Machine! I really love it!
Did anyone else feel like they were on acid while watching this video? 😂
Excellent machine, simply beautiful.
Great vid. Sweet ride
Always loved the CL, they sure don't make 'em like this anymore. Also not normally a fan of bags, but this car looks delish
There's something about this C class that looks like it could have rolled off the production line yesterday. Also I love it when cars have adjustable sogginess levels, it's a very luxurious feature :p
That CL55 is DOPE!
wow, trippy skies :D
This was my dream car back in high school!
great video. I am looking at purchasing CL 55. On a side note, the swirl in the sky reminds me of the teletubies...
nice look and nice sound.
Great video..Thanks Looking @ a Cl65 was worried about suspension..
That car is pure class.
bags sound perfect for daily driving and some spirit drive...
Its been a long time I seen the car.. still looking great B.. He know hows how to build great car.. Matt, you should have seen his w202 C-class before he had this CL..
I love benz, and the planned obsolescence in them is fantastic for folk that want em cheep!
Best car I ever owned, I still miss mine.
This guy is the best guest Matt has ever had, hands down
Lovely looking car and great wheels :)
super dope car, full bagasse look!
the owner, great guy! and he knows his stuff
bruh that car is flames🔥🔥
Might be one of my favs
I think you brought up a good point when people are stretching their budgets a bit to buy high end cars like this I don't think they completely realize the extra upkeep costs. If your rich no worries I guess but when its just barely within your budget definitely something to consider.
i've been following this dude on ig for a while and he is so awesome. He has the same taste in cars than me.
that shadow of the cam man was cool
the cl body is the sexiest car mercedes has ever came up with
this is awesome, i saw the thumbnail and thought it was my friends cl500 but it couldn't be because its in NY, it looks the same except with brabus wheels!
This thing is clean!!
same with big trucks. when I'm empty it's very bouncy and annoying but when I'm loaded it's a heck of a lot smoother.
one of my favourite cars when I was a kid...
Love this car, so clean. Toyota Soarer/ Lexus SC have a similar style of door hinge.
Those rims are sick!
THE SOUND OF OLD 55 AMG !!!!!! LAWWRRDDD
Love this car, nice one take
And abc suspension is pretty amazing if it's working right I had my car for quite a while so I studied everything about it and know what to do when to do with suspension rebuild my own valve blocks which was pretty easy with harbor freight o-rings and pretty much have a good understanding of what each part does which makes it pretty simple to fix.
