Merc1 · **Yet Another CLK63 AMG Roadtest... -** 08-17-2006, 06:29 AM

While Audi has equipped the sizzling new A4-based RS4 Cabrio*let with a 414bhp 4.2-litre V8 unit, Mercedes has managed to squeeze an engine that’s a whole two litres bigger under the bonnet of its CLK Convertible.

And the results are staggering. The CLK63 badge is slightly misleading – the engine’s capacity is actually 6.2 litres – but that’s no drawback when you consider what’s on offer. Developing 481bhp and 630Nm, power is up 31 per cent and torque 23 per cent on the 5.5-litre V8 machine that it replaces.
