Does the Mercedes-Benz CL 65 AMG with its 612HP twin-turbocharged V12 engine seem a bit slow and not quite as exclusive as you’d like it to be? Need a set of wheels that will really make you stand out of the AMG crowd? Don’t fear because Carlsson is here. Set to make its world premiere at Zurich Auto Show in Switzerland on November 13, Carlsson’s Mercedes-Benz CL-based Aigner CK65 RS “Eau Rouge” Dark Edition has been developed in association with the leather lifestyle brand Etienne Aigner.

Production of the luxury coupe that features a V12 Bi-Turbo tweaked to deliver 705 HP or 756 HP with a few additional upgrades will be limited to only 10 cars. In case you’re wondering why, let’s just say because prices for the Carlsson Aigner CK65 “Eau Rouge” Dark Edition 705HP start from €319,000 (around $400,000) and for the 756HP version with the second power stage from €374,000 (approx $470,000).
