2008 Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series
This is a 9,000‑mile 2008 Mercedes‑Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series finished in Mars Red (590). Mercedes built only 700 units worldwide, with 350 allocated to the U.S. Of those, just 10 cars arrived in Mars Red making this one of the rarest and most desirable Black Series examples ever brought to the American market.
Inspired by the 2006 Formula 1 Safety Car, the CLK63 Black Series is powered by the iconic, hand‑built 6.2L naturally aspirated M156 V8, producing 507 hp and 465 lb‑ft of torque. It came track‑ready from the factory with KW coilovers, a Drexler limited‑slip differential, and the wide‑body stance that has become synonymous with AMG’s most hardcore creations.
As a Black Series collector and lifelong Mercedes enthusiast, stumbling across this car online on a random late Thursday night felt surreal. The idea of owning a piece of AMG history—especially the very first Black Series model sold in the U.S. was something I had only dreamed about. Even better, the previous owner was determined to pass the car on to someone who truly appreciated the brand and the Black Series lineage. We ended up talking for nearly three hours, swapping stories, laughing, and bonding over our shared passion.
Owning this car isn’t just about rarity or performance. It’s about becoming part of a legacy that AMG built with its own hands.
