    Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG







    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    AMG blessed it with 457hp, not bad for a car this size!

    I think it looks rather well, I dig the macho look, it sure beats the E92 M3 for road-presence!

    The big question ofcourse... how will it drive...

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    It sure looks aggressive ... I like it!

    It will drive like no other Benz.
    I drove the new C200K a few weeks ago and I was a killer experience. The difference between it and it previous generation is like night and day.

    The best improvement is steering which is as direct as one would expect from a top notch car. Extremely responsive. The new C is overall a heavily improved car and I'm very optimistic about the C63.

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Looks sweet.

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Thanks, Porker! Looking way tough! Hood is similar to the GL- class.

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Was waiting for this... Really like the standard C class, got a really chunky look which I like, nice and agressive and has a hint of the old 80's Merc which is no bad thing.

    Looking forward to seeing some performance numbers and also what kind of price tag they may expect..

    Could this be a RS4 / e92 M3 killer??? Quite possibly

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Looks like a monster!!!
    Not for me though ... Should be faster than its rivals in a straight line but doubtful if it will be up to par with handling

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    I love it

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Why would anyone want a 63 AMG version of a C Class? If they can afford an AMG variant, why not an AMG of a model higher up the Mercedes model hierarchy?

    Aside from price and size one would go for the C class simply because of power/weight issues. As you go higher in the model range you will be getting a heavier car. Grant you the engine on the C class is slightly de-tuned to 450hp, it can easily be tweaked back to its original output of +500hp. And that will probably make it the best preforming AMG 63 in the whole range.

    Perhaps this person doesn't want a car as big as an E-class?

    Concerning the looks of the new C63, I'm not sure yet if I like it. Have to see it in person.
    Yes it's aggressive, but perhaps it's just a little bit too much.

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    @ha: good point ha re: power/weight but at the end of the day, it's still a C Class! uggh!! I doubt if the quality of the fit/finish is as good as a CL63 AMG.

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    I like it!
    Where do you found the pics?
    Have you got one from the rear?!

    Here you go...


    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    It really looks like a monster. It would hurt many hearts of sports car owners on autobahn.

    Hehe easy answer.
    There always be a few Mercedesin Addicts want to beat M3 with a low-class AMG model. How many C55 have been sold past years. Sure very less than SL55.

    As it seems C63 would do beat RS4/M3 without so much effort. But not in the topics of track, but in topics of autobahn. And most of Mercedesin addicts dont mind track.

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Caghan,
    I agree with you.
    Belive it or not new C63 is first AMG model that I really like. There will be 280km/h option as well. Performance are excellent (0-100km/h: 4.5s) and C63 will likely be faster then R8 or M3 in straight line...
    BUT, its is a heavy car-1730kg's... For comparison M3 weights 1580kg's...


    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Design is great, it looks very aggressive... but Im not a fan of those big engines. For sure its very fast on straight line, but for me is more important how car feels in corners...

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    For ME the problem is that both M3 and C63 are faster in straight line then R8. Currently the hype around R8 is high as possible but, it could end in the same category as Cayman S-not fast enough sportscar...

    The real funny thing is, that nowadays we seem to consider a 1580kg-saloon to be a "light car".

    The new CLK63 will probably be lighter the same way the M3 sedan will be heavier than 1580kg.

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    very nice. would rock as an everyday car if debadged, perfect for the individual who wants something fast and not too "look at me, i'm money".

    Pressrelease:
    http://www.worldcarfans.com/news.cfm/cou...63-amg-revealed

    Since this is the same engine found in the E\CLS\CL\S...AMGs that has been de-tuned, anyone know how much effort it would take to bring the engine performance back up over 500 hp

    A C-Class with 514 hp, now THAT would be a killer car

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Cool:

    Quote:
    The new C63 AMG is the very first AMG car to feature an automatic throttle-blipping function during downshifts. This not only enhances the driver's emotional experience - the almost completely jolt-free downshifting process also reduces the load-change responses and has a particularly positive effect when braking before bends on the racetrack.

    Bumping up the power won't be difficult at all. It's a 6.2L engine with a lot of potential. Brabus will go nuts when they get their hands on the car.

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Would be a great battle between the c63 and the new m3

    How about some high-res wallpapers: http://www.varnavto.com/hqwp/2008-mercedes-benz-c63-amg.php
    standart + widescreen

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Only one thing that I noticed-it is big car...

    4725mm lenght
    1795mm width
    1438mm height
    2765mm wheelbase

    Re: Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

    Optional 19" wheels look much better IMHO...


    Profile looks strange...


    Interior...
