But the power is roughly the same between the CL65 AMG and "new" CL65 AMG, right?
The engine and transmission in the old and new CL65 is 100% the same. The new CL65, however, is slightly slower because its 500lbs heavier than the old one. The body is completely redesigned (90% new), its also much more luxurious, the interior is better than Bentley IMO:
Also, can you tell me when / if the SL55 got a facelift in 2007, with different exhaustpipise, than the oval it came with first?
I don't think the SL55 got a facelift between 03 and 08. In 2009, they are discontinuing the SL55 and replacing it with SL63 with a major facelift. They are keeping 600, 65, and 550. Here are the pics of the new SL63:

"Remember Evotech CL65 vs Evosport M6 show down? Well, we finally dynoed the both cars side by side at the same place on a same day. The dyno shop was Powertrain Dynamics located right next to the evosport in Huntington Beach. The owner Steve is a great guy and I found that he does most of the dynos for Vadim@VRP. When we got there Vadim@VRP was testing modded E55 and that car was putting down 508 at the wheels. and had great exhaust sound. Vadim helped dyno the CL and even logged the data for me. what a great guy!! There were many people from this forum speculated the evotech M6 had unusually high number (476whp) and concerned about the recently tuned CL65 by evotech. The below number shows that the previous M6's 476whp was SAE uncorrected number and the power gain for the Evotech ECU/TCU tuned CL65 was just about right. They've seen many ECU tuned 65 cars leaning out (13.0+) but my 65 AFR was right on the money and Steve and Vadim seemed very impressed by the both AFR and whp numbers. I know this isn't awesome number nor anything to brag about but I am happy with the result and most of all I am very satisfied the way the car runs.
As for the torque numbers, we didn't get the exact numbers due to all the dyno pulls were done 3500rpm and up. I will try to post the dyno charts and videos. Lastly I want to thank Adam@Evotech for the tuning and great service."
