This year Mercedes is celebrating the one hundredth birthday of the three-pointed star and the Benz emblem, and what better way to celebrate than by offering yet another special edition of the CL 500 coupe. Titled the CL 500 “Trademark Centenary,” the anniversary edition features an AMG Sports Package, a unique exterior paint finish from the designo collection, a hand-stitched designo aniline leather interior and black piano lacquer trim. Of course, no anniversary edition would be complete without a little custom badging, so inserted into the CL Trademark Centenary’s center console are the two aforementioned star and Benz emblems, crafted from gilded plate brass.

If you’re interested, the Mercedes CL 500 Trademark Centenary can be ordered immediately (provided you’re in one of the European markets its available in), with pricing for the upgrade set at 17,850 Euro (incl. 19% German VAT) on top of the standard cost of the CL. Deliveries are set to commence June 26th.
