Hot C63 AMG Readies for New Owner

Looking to pick up a rare gem? Then, this Fire Opal Red C63 AMG Black Series might pique your interest.

One of only 800 models built, this hot one-owner Mercedes-Benz is revving up to go under the hammer September 7, courtesy of the pros at RM Sotheby’s.

Under the hood, the 2013 C63 AMG is equipped with a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V8 with a few parts “borrowed” from the SLS AMG, including a lighter crankshaft, forged pistons, and forged connecting rods, as highlighted in an Autoevolution report. The end result? A total output of 510 horsepower and a zero to 60 mph time of 3.7 seconds.

Even more impressive, the car only has 1,573 miles logged on the odometer. The downside, however, is that the value of the C63 AMG Black Series has actually appreciated over the years. In fact, the bidding for this model is expected to start at about $150,000. Of course, you can hardly expect a rare beauty like this to go for cheap.
