Believe it or not...this is a C200. It looks better than most C63's

Looks mean as hell, but not gonna lie, seems like a wasted effort for a semi boring vehicle.

I like ***** to back the looks haha.

Looks very nice! Just missing the most important thing.... c63 engine

Doa

rear suspension is set too low to be good looking.
anyway i like how it looks but its a sheep in wolf's clothing

tbh the car looks like a Frankenstein of a c class.

Look at the sideskirt compared to the rear bumper. the side skirt is alot lower then the rear bumper. looks terrible from the side shot.

lets go to the front. There's a pretty big gap between the hood and grill. Also the hood's paint does not match the rest of the body. The fitment of the hood is also off where it meets the fender area.

mish mash of aftermarket C63(or black series) look alike parts.

Not sure why everyone is nit picking this guys ride. Looks nice and clean. A bit too low on the rear end for my taste but other than that it looks awesome. .


I think you may have been asking for it by titling this post "Better than most C63's".... I dare you to post that on the c63 AMG forum.

The car would look OK if it was 2" higher. The "slammed" look really takes the class out of "C-Class".

I agreed to the car being too low. Please please please remove that AMG badge. You will only get laughed at. I've seen plenty of those "AMG" cars on the road...Like today at lunch, I saw a GLK350 AMG...
But the rest of the car looks fantastic.

Just googled, C200 engine. 1.8L turbo...

Looks like a giant waste of time and money to me. The AMG badge is a complete and utter fail — seriously. It's way too low. The bumpers are hideous. It doesn't even close to as good as a stock C63. I like my stock C300 with the sport package better.

I honestly hate all of it, other than it looks like he did some great detailing and some good photography. However, if the owner loves it, who cares? It's his car. I'm glad he's enjoying it.

Not a fan. Just doesn't look right.

Looks like crap, but I would take those wheels..

I would prefer an AMG 6.3 that looked like a C200.

Black on black with a little bit of red on the side lol how original. Those side skirts don't follow the body of the car at all. I appreciate the wax job and the 500$ photoshoot.

The rear is trying to mimic the C63 Black Series rear, but fails.

AMG badging on a non-AMG...

This car was featured in a custom euro's magazine. To the conservative eye, this C200 CDI is pure blasphemy. The car has a CF hood, so appears to not match. In my opinion the car looks good, but I would change the hood, skirts and go up another 2". No doubt we are a diverse group of W204 enthusiasts. This car proves that, because all of us would take something off of it, and put it on our cars....I got dib's on the Brakes, LOL

Hindsight being 20/20. The amount of money and time spent to make this look like a C63, the owner could have bought a very low mileage 2012+ C63 with change to spare.

Perhaps... but this car is a 2008, and if the owner did the work, that's a 5 to 8k deduction. I'm guessing the parts ranged 10 to 13k.


So let's add this up.


2008 c200- $12000
Body kit-$3000
Brakes used-$2000
Wheels and tires-$4000
Others- $2000


Total without labor-$23000
With labor-$28000 to 30k.

TBH, complete POS, all show, no go!!!! A GTI could beat that thing for half the cost too ( even a TDI could beat it).

Speed isn't everything.. sometimes looks are more important to a car enthusiast than how fast it can go.

xjaymzzx

i appreciate speed counts for something BUT how often do you really drive fast in your daily driving (esp. since i got a really bad speeding ticket recently lol). i would rather have looks then speed (as a daily driver).

I mean it'd be nice to have a really fast/really good looking car tho!
