This 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG was sold new in California and remained registered there through 2019 until it moved to North Carolina then Pennsylvania where it currently resides with the owner and seller. Finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744) over Alpaca Gray Exclusive Leather (588), power is provided by a 6.0-liter biturbo V12 paired with a five-speed AMG SpeedShift automatic transmission driving the rear wheels. Features include exclusive two-piece AMG wheels, heated and ventilated multicontour front seats, an electronic trunk closer, a Bose surround sound system, COMAND with Navigation, an electric rear rollerblind, and much more. The included Carfax report shows 26 service history records with services under the owners care including all new plugs, a driver-side coil pack, new air filters, an oil service, a new pneumatic pump for the trunk, and new door handles for the keyless entry. Now with 98k miles from new, this CL65 is offered for sale by the current owner with the original tool kit, spare tire, clean Carfax report, and a clean Pennsylvania title.
The exterior is finished in Brilliant Silver Metallic (744) and features AMG styling including a sculpted front and rear bumper, side skirts and quad chrome AMG exhaust tips. Exterior features include bi-xenon headlamps, a heated windshield washer system, a power-closing trunk and a glass sunroof. Factory "V12 biturbo" badging is exclusive to the CL65 and present on each front fender. The front bumper and rear bumper have been repainted under the current owner’s care due to light scratches and chips.
Fitted are the factory staggered 19” AMG twin-spoke two-piece alloy wheels wrapped in Continental tires measuring 245/40 front and 275/35 rear. AMG 8-piston front and 4-piston rear calipers are painted silver with AMG lettering and are mounted with two-piece ventilated discs.

A configurable digital display sits in the center and is accompanied on either side by digital displays for the outside temperature and a digital clock. The digital odometer reads just over 98k miles.

@adangelo327 good morning! I’m pretty sure I’ll regret too but if it won’t be sold I really won’t feel bad about it for sure c215 is still the best looking coupe in my opinion :) I owned 220 and currently own 230 and 221 65AMGs as well. To be honest ABC never gave me any issue on none of my cars and I tend to drive them all. Besides what I wrote down I haven’t gotten anything else fixed (oh by the way vehicle has Bluetooth capability I forgot to write) ABC fluid has been checked every year and independent shop and the Benz dealership never told me to fix anythingGood morning. You’ve really invested / cared for the car. I sold my 05 cl65 a year ago and regret it. So I’m familiar with the usual issues. Can you talk to me about the abc system ? Have you replaced the tandem pump , hydro lines , valve blocks and accumulater bulbs or have you gone to coils ? As you know this can be a 15-20k j unless you go to coils.$4,000 bid placed by @ArcherBasil

I’ve had this car since 2021 and been driving it since then along with my all other benzes because I tend to drive my cars. It’s been extremely taken care of, everything works except the rear power sunshade which -according to dealership- there’s no fix due to parts being NLA. As all my v12s, this vehicle has received the engine out complete reseal job by the shop that’s extremely reputable on European vehicles. I’ve spared no expense as always, the only thing that’s aftermarket on the vehicle is the catless downpipes and have a tune on the car by V-tech just to not to have a code for exhaust and it is pretty conservative. The wheels will be refinished (due to chemical that my detail guy applied) before the auction ends and I’ll upload the pictures as well so close your eyes when you’re checking out its pictures :) good luck everybody! As always, ask me anything :)
