This 2008 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG 40th Anniversary Edition is one of forty examples produced worldwide and one of just twenty examples delivered to the US. Finished in AMG Alubeam Silver Metallic (047) over Two-Tone Exclusive Passion Nappa Leather (511), power is provided by a hand-built 6.0-liter Biturbo V12 mated to an AMG SpeedShift five-speed automatic transmission. Factory equipment includes a carbon fiber rear diffuser, carbon fiber interior trim, heated and ventilated multicontour front seats, Distronic Plus, Parktronic, Bi-Xenon headlamps, Night View Assist, a rear view camera, a power sliding glass sunroof, a power rear sunshade, COMAND with navigation and a Harman/Kardon surround sound system. Extensive service history is included with an included VMI report from the dealership system with the most recent maintenance consisting an oil service, engine air filter, cabin air filter, brake fluid flush, new seat bladder, new xenon bulbs, oil filler cap, ignition service, wheel speed sensors, oil level sensor, and more. Now showing just over 87k miles, this CL65 AMG is offered for sale with the original manufacturer’s literature, spare tire, tool kit, original key chain from the dealer, service records, first aid kit, and a clean Florida title.

The AMG Alubeam Silver Metallic (047) paint was exclusive to the 40th Anniversary Edition along with a carbon fiber rear diffuser. The exterior features AMG body styling including sculpted front and rear bumpers with larger honeycomb air intakes, sculpted side skirts and dual twin exhaust pipes. Exterior equipment includes Bi-Xenon headlamps with Active Curve Illumination, a power glass sunroof, Distronic PLUS cruise control with Parking Guidance, Parktronic parking sensors, a rear view camera, Night View Assist and Keyless-Go. The seller notes that the front bumper was replaced in February of 2024 and the car got two new xenon bulbs.

The 20” AMG double-spoke forged aluminum alloy wheels were fitted with a new set of Toyo Extensa HP tires in August 2023 which measure 255/35 front and 275/30 rear. Minor curb rash is visible on the front passenger-side wheel. A four-wheel alignment was also performed along with a new set of front pads and rotors in February 2023 and brake fluid in April of 2026. Braking is handled by twin-sliding AMG calipers which bite down on ventilated discs front and rear. The Active Body Control suspension provides adjustable ride height and stiffness. The brake calipers were painted in black and still retain the silver AMG letters on the faces and TPMS sensors were done in October of 2023.

The cabin is upholstered in a unique Two-Tone Exclusive Passion Nappa Leather (511) with a brown Alcantara headliner and color-matched AMG floor mats. Both front seats are heated and ventilated and come equipped with dynamic multicontour adjustment with massage. Interior amenities include carbon fiber trim with 40th Anniversary badges, a power rear sunshade, dual-zone automatic climate control, an IWC analog clock, an 8” COMAND display with navigation and an 11-speaker Harman/Kardon Logic7 surround sound system. The front seats fold forward to provide access to the second row. The left rear window regulator was replaced in July 2023 and the seat bladder was replaced in April of 2026. The back left corner of the front passenger floor mat shows some damage.

The four-spoke AMG steering wheel features aluminum paddle shifters and fronts a digital 220-mph speedometer along with an analog 7k-rpm tachometer, a fuel gauge and a coolant temperature indicator. The digital odometer currently shows 87k miles from new. The steering wheel also wears OEM style leather that was redone by the previous owner to retain the like-new satin appearance.

This C216 is powered by a hand-built 6.0-liter Biturbo V12 which is factory rated for 604 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through an AMG SpeedShift five-speed automatic transmission. The most recent oil change was performed in April of 2026 at DC Motorwerks at 87k miles and an ignition service including spark plugs, spark plug wires, and a left coil pack was done in October of 2023 at 76k miles. Extensive service history is included with documentation viewable in the photo gallery including a VMI report from the dealership program.

The Carfax report shows three owners with registration reported in California until the car moved to Florida with the third owner in 2023. The current seller is selling the car on behalf of his father. Linear mileage updates are shown along with regular service reports. Accident reports are shown in 2013, 2015, and 2024 with damage noted as minor. Now showing just over 87k miles, this CL65 AMG is offered for sale with the original manufacturer’s literature, spare tire, tool kit, original key chain from the dealer, service records, VMI report, first aid kit, and a clean Florida title.

The MB Market Insights

The CL65 AMG is already a rare car with only 1,132 units made worldwide, but the 40th Anniversary is an even more elusive machine with only 40 built and 20 imported into the U.S. and is painted in the same color as the R197 SLS launch scheme. Step into the interior and you’re greeted with chocolate candybar tones and either leather, metal, carbon fiber, or Alcantara on every surface of the car. We have to remember this was a $300k car in 2008 right when the Recession hit. You have to have mega money to make this thing work – it’s the ultimate display of ‘08 wealth. It was either Rolls-Royce or Bentley if you wanted an interior with the same build quality and materials. Let’s not forget the venerable M275 bi-turbo V12 engine that made planet turning torque. The cabins are ferociously quiet and the double paned glass keeps out any plebian noises from the outside world. We also love seeing the UV reflecting, holographic purple tint on the glass in certain angles – only big money cars had this. This example has been exceptionally well maintained and comes with excellent provenance. The driving video shows it accelerates like a F-22 but has the big boned, buttoned down feel of a 747. If you want a car that makes you feel superior to everyone else, look no further. This is King Kong.

Hello everyone and welcome to my listing of this 2008 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG 40th Anniversary Edition (only 20 in North America). I am helping my dad sell this car which he originally purchased on MB Market in September of 2023. He has enjoyed it a lot and put about 10k miles on it under his ownership. 

Lots of maintenance was done as well as some general improvements like painting calipers, refinishing the leather steering wheel, ceramic coating etc.

I will be in the comment section all week to assist and answer any questions you may have regarding the car.

Happy bidding!
