The CLK63 has been out for awhile now. However it certainly doesnt look like that. Whatever variation CLK that is, it went through those turns very flat. Nice sound and it looks great too.

Are you talking about the Black Series?
There have been numerous Black Series AMG's I think.
The most recent (or the most 'new' or whatever, bringing back black series) was the SLK55 Black Series. 400hp, fixed roof, and a few other goodies I think.

I can't believe I'm about to say this but... The rims are too big. It detracts from the car. It would look better with slightly more tire and less rim.

The video was very cool, especially the engine note at the beginning.

I think the crazy wheel arches make them look bad.
