2012 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe Review by NRMA Motoring

Lighter and faster than it’s sedan stable mate, the C63 AMG Coupe is a serious road weapon that packs a killer track tuned punch.

2012 C63 coupe
Nice review except the reviewer doesn't seem to know the car well... active damping in S, S+ and C mode??? Huh? Maybe I'm misinterpreting but it seems to allude that the car has adaptable suspension.

Active damping is standard and comes into its own when you roll the dial round to Sport or Sport +. Comfort mode is where you’ll want the dial for your daily grind though

Yeah, how stupid is that....what he's talking about has nothing to do with the suspension......also he's quoting 336KW, when the car he was driving appeared to be the P.P. with 358KW.....and then, he only gives performance 15/20?......definitely not the best review I've ever read.....I think he was simply "overwhelmed" by the "might" of the C63?!!!.....Quite understandable?!
Cheers, Pickles.

True but it is only the NRMA not quite in the same league as top gear or motor.
