Mercedes Benz CL-Class AMG Convertible





There simply aren't enough superlatives to describe how gorgeous this vehicle is. As many of our clients know, the Mercedes Benz CL-Class, (the 550, 63, 600, & 65), are perhaps the most popular and difficult to obtain cars for Carlyle Motor Club. A CL may last 1 hour on our inventory list before it's snapped up by an eager customer, that's IF it can even make it to the inventory list. Our waiting list for these reads like a short novella. The love affair runs deep for that car. And that's just for the regular coupe version...

Newport Convertible Engineering in Newport Beach has upped the ante by chopping the top on this beloved piece of automotive engineering whereby creating one of the most desireable convertibles we've ever seen here at Carlyle. Though we're slightly disappointed that the roof does not fold away into the trunk, seeing a CL with no top is enough to make us forget about all of the material folded up & compressed behind the rear passengers' headrests.

Although this piece is a 1 of 1, if Mercedes Benz ever decided to mass produce a similar convertible CL-Class, these things would fly out of showrooms worldwide. That leaves just one question: Could this be the most beautiful convertible ever?
