Long before Mercedes embarked on a plan to expand its family of AMG models, there were only a select few performance-focused models from its range that received the AMG badge. The Mercedes-Benz CLK 63 AMG Black Series was one of the very finest.

The example you’re looking at is a 2008 model and currently resides in New Jersey. It has a mere 1,600 miles (2,575 km) on the clock and looks bound to sell for a pretty penny – and there’s a good reason for that.

The first thing the CLK 63 AMG Black Series has going for it is the fact that just 500 examples were built worldwide with 349 of them said to have been sold in the United States. This car currently for sale on Bring A Trailer was delivered new by Plaza Mercedes-Benz of Pompano Beach in Florida and acquired by the current owner in 2019.

Sitting at the heart of this beast is a 6.2-liter naturally-aspirated M156 V8 engine rated at 500 hp at 6,800 rpm and churning out 465 lb-ft (630 Nm) of torque through the rear wheels via a seven-speed SpeedShift automatic transmission and a limited-slip differential. While the current C63 S has just as much power, it cannot match the CLK 63 AMG’s engine for sound.

As this AMG has so few miles under its belt, it looks practically brand new. There are no reported accidents or damage (except for a scratched-up front splitter which has since been repainted) and the car is being sold with the original window sticker, owner’s manual, a car cover, a clean New Jersey title, and a clean Carfax report.
