This car is called the "SledgehammeR"
I own a couple of modern day GNX's .... what is this? This is a CL65 Mercedes coupe...
THE MOST POWERFUL PRODUCTION CAR IN AUTOMOBILE HISTORY!!!!!!!....yes gents...this car came from the factory with 612hp and 738 lbs of torque...DETUNED...
It is in the books ....the car produces more torque then any other car every built period... HP? only the ENZO has a few more HP and the Mclaren F1 and ZR1 .but none of them produce the torque figures.... Torque moves A CAR ...not HP......The car is classified in supercar editorials as having the most powerful engine ever built ...
Since it is detuned...It is actually capable of 670hp and 880 lbs of torque but AMG felt the tranny would be on the brink of disaster and set the power back...a few guys have had the ECU reprogrammed and the tranny can take 1000 lbs of torque.....AMG overbuilt this car as Buick overbuilt the 3.8 TURBO
Only 194 were ever built in this body style...ONLY 194...AND LESS then 2600 cars have ever been built with this drivetrain since 2005....compared to
close to 30k Turbo regals built in the 2 years with the legendary 3.8 sfi turbo
What makes this car so special? What made the GNX special? low production numbers and power?And the fact it was made by a outsourced co. Called ASC.... This CL65 is all that and a bag of chips...HAND built by AMG...super low production ..206 mph ungoverned top speed and it runs the 1/4 in low 11's with air conditioned seats and messaging seats....Reliable?... more reliable then our 109 motors are....not one has blown PERIOD....I am an avid fan of TR'S ... owned many .. MANY... but this Mercedes is a pinnacle of what the GNX once stood for....Comfort..class ,speed and being INCOGNITO....
Also AMG through on set of 8 piston calipers with 15.6" rotors on the front on this car.... one thing ASC didnt do back then... add a better braking set-up.... all those balls with brakes made for a honda........back then brakes werent a issue.... nowadays... cars stop as well as they run..
Does it look fast? Not really ....it is sinister and mysterious....damn right!!!Like the GNX.... and it will whip your Vette's ass and your Lamborghini Murc's ass as well!!!!!!
The original MSRP was $184k on this car.....
only 194 built in 2 years.....
Go drive one gents...it is the smoothest fastest car you will ever drive in your life...I PROMISE you...
The GNX was ahead of its time...and so is this car....it was built to beat ferraris and lambos yet keep you comfortable....The GNX was the same....
