At present the most extreme Benz in Mercedes' lineup, the CLK 63 AMG Black Series produces 540-hp from its 6.3 liter V8 engine.?Rest to 60 comes in at 4.3 seconds. Well, tuner Kicherer begs to differ. Kicherer engineers have added an extra 33-hp to the CLK AMG Black Series for a total of 540. That gives the Kicherer version the ability to do 0-60 in 4.1 seconds with a top speed of 186mph.
The prevailing notion that sports cars are just a pleasure for two was now contradicted by Kicherer. The renowned Mercedes embellishing specialists from Stockach have enriched the CLK 63 AMG, which is actually a two-seater, with a sporty back seat. When you take the north loop in less than 8 minutes with this bolide, all those seats will definitely provide more fun - and adrenaline - than any rollercoaster. And what is more, those additional seats guarantee a Black Edition with a significantly improved road capability. But, Kicherer will even delight design and sports enthusiasts.
Fine modifications to the exterior design retain the Black Edition's aggressive stance with the addition auto parts designed to handle the pressure of the vehicle performing at such a high level. Other features in the model include lighter three-part wheels and ultra-light front seat buckets made of genuine carbon.
The radiator grill, already quite impressive on the standard version, is replaced by an even sportier variant made of carbon and featuring carbon fiber struts. The beautiful forged three-part wheel, Kicherer RS-1, also fulfils a double function as it is a visual and - thanks to weight reduction - also a sportive gain.
The chassis - specially developed for Kicherer by DTM specialist H&R - also improves the racer's cornering dy
