2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series with custom carbon fiber interior by MAcarbon for sale. Motorcar Classics is excited to present this rare 2008 Mercedes CLK 63 AMG Black Series high-performance coupe featured in Bright Iridium Silver Metallic Clear Coat paint with Black Nappa leather interior. AMG's Black Series version of its CLK63 hot-rod coupe is patterned, it is said, on the CLK63 used as a safety car at Formula 1 races and and as a pace car for DTM (German Touring Cars Championship) races. The Black Series is immediately identifiable by its aggressive air-scoop-rich front end and muscular wheel arches. The carbon-fiber ducts you see on the front fascia sides are the real thing, from a material and functional standpoint, as is the tail spoiler. There is more than a hint of the company's DTM CLK race car in this car's appearance, what with its prominent front apron and rear diffuser, 19-inch forged alloys, and extroverted dual-exhaust tailpipes. An incredible rumble emanates from the pipes when you bring the 6.2-liter V-8 to life. Huge torque is on tap, peaking at 465 pound-feet at 5250 rpm, but offering nearly 370 at just 2000 rpm, so the CLK moves off easily on a touch of throttle. A 7-speed AMG-tuned GTronic SpeedShift automatic is standard. Stand on the gas and the exhaust note hardens to an urgent, staccato beat, and the car launches with determination and 60 MPH will come up in about 4 seconds. The car will cruise along on the freeway turning 2200 rpm at 80 mph. Nail it at that speed, and the transmission drops a few gears with awesome top-gear acceleration. The Black Series surges from 30 to 50 mph in 2.0 seconds and from 50 to 70 mph in 2.7 seconds. But the real measure of its output is its ability to accelerate from 60 to 150 mph in less than 20 seconds.
In typical racing manner, front-axle camber is adjustable, whereas the rear axle has adjustable toe only. Compared with the standard CLK63, the Black Series car has a rear track 2.6 inches wider and a front track almost three inches wider. Huge cast-iron-disc, composite-hub brake rotors and monoblock calipers haul the car down from speed with astonishing intensity.
The cockpit features extremely supportive leather-clad sport seats equipped with a full range of manual fore-and-aft adjustment and power recline, lumbar-support, and torso-bolster functions. This car has a particularly handsome interior by virtue of tasteful and costly upgrades by a previous owner. While Mercedes mixed carbon fiber interior elements with lesser aluminum trim, the aluminum trim was replaced with carbon fiber components from MAcarbon. The steering wheel and shift paddles also have been upgraded to carbon fiber. Sitting snugly in the wraparound seat, clutching the flat-bottomed wheel while squeezing the throttle and stabbing the brake, the Black Series blasts down the straights on an exhilarating tide of torque and then digs in hard under braking, turns in with considerable tenacity, rotates willingly on the throttle, and rockets out of the corner. All courtesy of the latest generation of Pirelli P Zero Corsa tires, which do a lot to make transitions progressive and readable without premature tire squeal.
Just over 500 of these cars were produced worldwide with about 350 coming to the US at a price of about $140,000. Our car has covered only 12,314 miles and has been cherished from new with never any history of damage or any paint work. The car was delivered in September of 2007. Factory equipment includes Garage Door opener, Navigation, Satellite Radio, Climate Control, Headlamp Washer, Bi-Xenon Headlamps, AMG 19 Wheels, CD Changer, and more.
