Although the Mercedes CL-Class is not the car you should tune it, LSD thought something else and installed their well-known wing doors on the luxury vehicle. With these new doors the coupe becomes an absolute looker. Featuring the new GRS+ system, the result includes more safety and more precise opening and closing of the door. Of course you have to know that the LSD wing doors come with a German TUV certificate. No words about the price yet!

Mercedes will offer an all-wheel drive for its luxury CL-Class Coupe for the first time. The new CL 500 4MATIC offers even greater traction and handling stability.
The CL 500 4MATIC is powered by a V8 engine with an output of 388 hp and 530 Newton metres of torque, which is on tap between 2800 and 4800 rpm. The combined fuel consumption in the NEDC cycle is 12.1 litres per 100 kilometres - a further bonus of the new, highly efficient Mercedes all-wheel-drive system. The CL 500 4MATIC requires just 5.4 seconds to accelerate from zero to 60 mph, and reaches an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph.
Mercedes-Benz has further improved this all-wheel-drive system, and uses the latest-generation system in the CL 500 4MATIC – the one that has already proved successful in the S-Class. 4MATIC is permanently active and therefore requires no response time to come to the driver’s aid in unfavourable weather and driving conditions. As a result, critical situations can be mastered more effectively and confidently.

Mercedes presented the CL-Class back in 1998 (with this moniker), and since then it knew three different generations: first between 1998 to 2000, seconds from 2000 to 2006 and third from 2007 to present. But even if the third generation was just launched, Mercedes is working on the fourth generation.
With design cues taken from the F700 unveiled last year at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the 4th generation CL-Class is scheduled to be launched in 2011 and sales will begin in 2012, same time with the next generation S-Class.
Even if the F700 Concept is not a beautiful car, it really show the future design of the entire Mercedes line-up.As previously announced, the F700 is a preview version of the 2012 S-Class, but we’re pretty sure the they won’t stop here!
