Last week we brought you the world premiere of the brand new 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class, and today we have a new set of leaked photos of the future Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG and the CL65 AMG.  Like the updated CL-Class, the AMG models have an updated grille, more angular headlights with LED running lights and revised taillights as some of their key design changes.

For the all-powerful Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG,  a quad-exhaust system with oval pipes is present, as is a metallic panel in the center of the rear diffuser and the always beautiful 20 inch AMG rims.  The CL63 AMG, on the other hand, is fitted with a quad-exhaust system with rectangular pipes, a slightly simpler looking rear diffuser and 19 inch AMG wheels.  Both feature complete AMG body styling, including a revised front and rear apron and side skirts.

As for power, the more potent sibling – the CL65 AMG – comes equipped with AMG’s trademark V12 engine producing 630 PS (463 kW/621 hp) and 1,000 Nm (738 lb-ft) of torque.  In the CL63 AMG, making its debut is the new Mercedes 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 which produces 544 PS (400 kW / 537 hp) and 800 Nm (590 lb-ft) of torque.
