Looks tough here, even with the test fender strips. REally excited to see what happens with this car.

+ 1 ...for starters it will lose 2 doors.

obsidian05e55

You think? Im starting to feel like they're going to leave it as 4 door. Either way it would be awesome!!

MiamiAMG

I don't understand this. I thought all AMG BS models were supposed to be coupe's.

My prayers have been answered now the wife has nothing to fight me on. 4 doors and I'm good to go. Now for the wait

How do we know it's not someone with a wide body kit?
Unless I'm missing something the only thing I see different here is the flares.

Very true, at least for me that the C63 BS vs. GT-R is a very tough choice...

I wonder how they will measure up on price. The old clk black was, what, $130k? If the c63 is anywhere near that it will cost a significant premium over a GT-R. Regardless, I'll bet that (1) the GT-R will be faster on the track, (2) the black will be more fun on the street, and (3) the black will sound worlds better.

I hope you are being sarcastic here. Have you not seen any other pics of test/future cars being tested on the ring that are either in camo or slightly modified to the eye like this one caught in pics??? Its a process. They could be testing tire/rims that day or whatever. You are not going to see the finished product just yet.

I remember when the first pic went live of the black series. It was behind a fence at an amg/MB testing facility with the added on flares in silve tacked onr. There were some on the board who said it was was a bad wide body kit by a customer at a body shop

Its for real. Why do you think BMW announced the lightweight M3 sedan at the M event last week.

I think it would be cool to see what they do with the exhaust. Also, it will be interesting to see what they do with cooling.

Perhaps there might be some parts that would be good to install on a regular C63.

You didn't pickup the sarcasm in my tone?

BMW's lightweight M3 Sedan (estimated to make somewhere between 414 - 444 HP and will never be sold in the US) would be no match for a C63 BS.

My gut says the C63 BS will be a coupe, but I'm praying for a sedan!

If they end up making BS a 4 door car then i m definitely getting one

Most-Wanted

Why on earth would mb waste testing time on a 4 door then. That makes no sense.

If they make it a four door which I'm confident they will I will be placing an order asap.) I can't wait.

I'd like to believe, but I don't at this point.

Is there any way to see who that car is registered to using the license plates?

AMGC60-3

This is more than likely a test mule and also doesnt mean that it will be a four door Black Series, the new W204 coupe will have the same platform. The license plates stand for Boblingen and the town of Sindlefingen shares the same plates BB, so it very well could be that this is a factory test car. Also the second two letters BR could stand for breit which means wide .

ZephyrAMG

I want those wheels.

Here it comes boys!!!

I hate to say it but if this BS C63 is anywhere close in price to the CLK BS, then it makes no sense to me and I will be going to a GTR.
GTR=100K + 10K exhaust/Tune mods = C63 BS killer anyday any time.

justthebest

Now THAT is something I can dig.

blackc230benzo

The GTR is a different market. A tuned one will take on many super cars . Its handling is so good that a talentless driver can make it look fast around a track, but at the end of the day its a nissan.

The c63bs will likely lose from a dig and around a track , but the BS will be less robotic and more fun to drive, sound better, be way prettier, rarer and have more allure than the nissan.

If you want $/speed then gtr but if you want something special than I'd go BS.

superlubricity

The '12 GT-R can be bought for <$90K and they are running 11.0-11.2 bone-stock based on the few that have made it to the strip to date. Someone is bound to hit 10's stock in the right conditions.

Want a few extra ponies? Add a bolt-in mid-pipe for $1K and you'll should find enough extra to comfortably hit high-10's with a full warranty. No tunes are available for the '12 yet.

Sorry for going a bit .

C43AMG

Black Series are 2 door only models.
