VIDEO: AMG CLK 63 Black Edition in the flesh

When we first saw the CLK 63 AMG Black Edition at the New York Auto Show, we were sold on the looks alone. While its appearance defines menacing, after a quick check of the spec sheet, the depth of meanness of this super Benz far exceeds its well-adorned skin. A 6.2-liter, 507 HP V8, composite brakes, huge air intakes, and no back seat makes for a blunt-force object rivaled by few on this planet. A top speed of 186 MPH and 0-60 in 4.1 seconds confirms that this is yet another bad-ass AMG.

After watching this video a few times, we've confirmed what we already suspected: we want need this vehicle in the Autoblog garage. The folks over at Motor Authority found a great video of the CLK63 Black Edition in action, and we're passing it on to you. Follow the jump to see this beast taking it to the twisties, but be warned, you may want to block off a few extra minutes to see this AMG beauty in action more than once.
