AIRREX is a sponsor so i'm sure it is . i find the flat hood makes it look more like a c300 with a conversion

I don't like how the new Ford Fusion looks like an Aston. Especially this SEMA one.

+1, the fenders don't look like they're AMG either.

I'm pretty sure the red one is a regular C converted to a C63. The front grill, hood & sideskirts are give aways.

FR-S/BRZ is this years poster child for SEMA. That all CF one looks pretty crazy.

Thanks for sharing pics. The red one looks puky. The BS is awesome and was wondering the same thing about what they applied to the matte paint.

It's the lighting that makes the matte paint look so good.

great pictures! What filter are you using to get that look on those pictures? If it's lightroom can you send me the filter?

I don't use any filters or presets. I have a step by step guide on how to do it buried in my BS photo shoot thread here: https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...oto-shoot.html

It's a lot of manual work balancing the lighting in each pic.

Great shots!. Found 1 C63 you missed but probably glad you did.
How about this C250. Wing bolted on the license plate holder butwas being pulled by an ML63.

He's using "HDR" photography.

It's not HDR. It'd be impossible to shoot HDR with that many people moving around.
