I'm happy for the OP for branching out with Mercedes' latest beauty.

However, the AMG interior looks so much more traditional and old school.
I can't get over the "bar of used soap" look from the inside.
Walnut trim? Really? Automatic transmission?... the list goes on.

That's not a performance car. It's a powerful luxury car. There's a difference.

Sorry, but I can't agree with your characterization of the CLS63 interior as necessarily looking traditional and old school. Any car will look traditional and old school with walnut trim and almond interior and that's clearly the look SHAIK was going for.

Want to see the CLS63 interior in black with the optional carbon fiber?



I'm not likely to buy the CLS 63 over the new M5, but I sure wish BMW would try for something a little more special with the M5 interior.
