Amazing car, I got to drive the sedan and its really really phenomenal 4 door car. I think its very enjoyable as a daily driver, the new 7gearbox situated with this engine is extremely good has lots of punch from down low and topspeed.
I love the C63 AMG, I think its a good car for the power and other goodies you get. I really love how it blips and you hear the exhausts burble when you release throttle. The car is really down tuned at oem specs, with an ecu,headers,cats and filters you can easily get around 80hp out of it and gobs more of torque.
Thank you for sharing, if I was in the market for a 4door this will nicely compliment my SLK but unfortunately i am not well I guess I'll wait for the SL.

I have the sedan. I had to sell my 07 GT3 because of my back and upcoming back surgery. So I aksed myself, SELF what car can you get in to and out of without grimacing or screaming out in pain? and the answers were M3, AMG Audi RS4 GTR or an Aston.
and the AMG motor and brakes won over the day. Unfortunately when I really do my homework I usually come up with the best car which means its selling really well and I get the worst deal. But oh well just paid cash anyway.
BUT yes this car is fun, just now got to break in miles and the blip down on the auto tranny is aurally so pleasing not to mention just raw fun!. It can be chipped to 537 for 1199 and youre done.
Whats cool about it too is the GT3 is a bare bones performance car not much tech and the AMG is the opposite. Loaded with creature comforts that I havent had like bluetooth NAV and a great stereo!!

If so, welcome!Mohammed - I love the C63, but the interior is really low-rent. I don't know who decided that big, matte, slab of plastic was a good idea for the dash. It's a shame because the exterior is NASTY hot!
