Yes it will fit the C63. There is a universal kit for coilovers.

Here is a quote from KW

"For extremely lowered sport compacts or other sports cars, there is a universal kit available. Not only reserved for high-end sports cars, KW HLS Individual can also be used for other popular automobiles, e.g. Audi A4, Saturn Sky, Subaru Impreza, Nissan 370Z, Volkswagen Golf mk2. KW HLS Individual is fitted in combination with a coilover suspension."

Not sure if you have to put KW coil-overs on the C63 or not but the system can be fitted to the C63.

BBI Autosport put a set on a 997 and they are pretty badass. When the tow truck came to pick the car up to take back to customer they just hit the button and walla cake walk to load the car.

Someone bought it for his ford focus with KW V3 and it ran him about 2000 euros which is about 2.7k I believe? That's just for the front btw.

I don't think anyone has a C63 with the front end lowered all the way to the ground as the cars on the website are. Unless you have a steep driveway or trailer frequently this is not needed. My friend's Gallardo has this feature and it makes trailering much easier.

I had a buddy that daily drove a jetta that had it's front so low it would knock a quarter over standing on end. He never scraped. He simply drove sensibly around driveways, curb, and potholes, while taking everything at an angle.

Nobody here is that low. Seems like several thousand dollars is a steep price to pay for the ability to not pay attention at the end of driveways and parking lots.

Then again, there's a lot more money here than on the vw forums.

These prices are retail prices, I can see what I can do, they are expensive but PM me if anyone wants one. It would be sool to get a set of these on a car.

HLS2-front wheels only- part# 19299299 $3700.00
HLS4-all 4 wheels- part# 19299499- $4800.00

Mike, you can't get this for your KW's. It comes with a hydraulic pump, reservoir and a bunch of other parts. WAY TOO HEAVY FOR YOU!!!!
