Mercedes Unveils The 2009 S-Class And C-Class AMG Models

For the first time, there is an AMG Sports package for the 2009 Mercedes-Benz

S-Class and the CL-Class. With revamped AMG bodystyling, attractive 19-inch AMG light-alloy wheels and special interior details, both top Mercedes-Benz models can now be made more striking than ever in terms of sportiness. The appealing combination of exclusive equipment features, many of which are not available separately, is proving increasingly popular with customers. The AMG Sports package is now available for five Mercedes model types.

New AMG bodystyling, including a front apron with large air intakes, enhances the visual impact of the S-Class and the CL-Class. The rear apron with a striking black insert and integrated, rectangular tailpipe trim in polished stainless steel is also eye-catching. AMG side sill panels round off the AMG bodystyling. 19-inch AMG light-alloy wheels with a five-spoke design and wide-base 255/40 (front) and 275/40 (rear) tyres fill the wheel arches perfectly and provide optimum contact with the road. 20-inch AMG light-alloy wheels are available as an option in a twin-spoke design with 255/35 and 275/35 tyres. Mounted on the front axle there are perforated brake discs and silver-painted brake callipers featuring Mercedes-Benz lettering; the V6 models have a more generously proportioned braking system.

Wood trim and the wood/leather steering wheel in black ash give the high-quality vehicle interior a dynamic feel. The AMG Sports package also includes velour floor mats with AMG lettering and sports pedals in brushed stainless steel with rubber studs.

The AMGSports package is available for all S-Class models with a short or long wheelbase, as well as for the CL 500 and CL 500 4MATIC. It costs between 5831 and 7973 euros (including 19% VAT); the market launch commences in June 2009. In addition to the S-Class and CL-Class, the new E-Class Saloon, the new E-Class Coupé and the C-Class can be equipped with the AMGSports package.

Lexus interiors are disgusting. Lexus always selects really mismatching color combinations for their cockpits. They don't seem to have the finesse and style of say an S-class interior which blends harmonious interior colors with quality materials.

The headline of the article says new S-Class and C-Class AMG models. Clearly the headline was supposed to say S-Class and CL-Class AMG models, not C-Class.

I beg to differ. The interior is really classy compared to those Pontiacs

I wish Mercedes would offer a C500 with the 5.0L V8. A small car with a 300hp V8 that has tons of tuning possibilities. A car for the common petrolhead. I like my CLK500 but, had a C500 7A been available I'd have bought that instead.

What is with that steering wheel. I hate the S's bland interior.

Note to Mercedes; wheel flares belong on a Dodge Caliber.
