The seller offers for sale this 2001 Mercedes-Benz CL 55 AMG, powered by a 5.4-litre naturally aspirated V8 engine, paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission. This C215-generation CL-Class coupe is offered for sale in France, where it is also registered, with 125,000 km on ODO-meter.
Launched in 2000, the C215 CL-Class was Mercedes-Benz’s flagship coupe of the era, sharing its underpinnings with the contemporary S-Class while wearing a pillarless, two-door body with no B-pillar between the front and rear windows. The CL 55 AMG sat toward the top of the range as the sportier, naturally aspirated V8 alternative to the V12-powered CL 600, using AMG’s 5.4-litre M113 unit to give the big coupe genuinely rapid performance without sacrificing the model’s grand-touring comfort. Standard equipment on the CL-Class included Active Body Control, Mercedes-Benz’s hydropneumatic active suspension system, which was designed to keep the car level and composed even under hard cornering while still delivering a supple ride on the open road.
Inside, the CL 55 AMG combines the four-seat luxury cabin of the standard CL-Class with AMG-specific touches, including sports seats, unique instrumentation and badging, wrapped in the high-quality materials expected of a range-topping Mercedes-Benz coupe of this era. With its blend of V8 performance, advanced chassis technology and understated coupe styling, the CL 55 AMG remains a distinctive and comparatively rare way into flagship Mercedes-Benz motoring from the early 2000s.
