Nothing better than Chris Harris behind the wheel of a C63.

We are fortunate to have driven this beast, gentleman.

If only they brought the wagon stateside -- I would keep mine forever. We had a W123 300TE (gas, 5 speed) wagon shipped from Europe when I was a kid -- another keeper! Arg!

Will definitely miss the M156, what a great engine. Can't wait to see the next C63 AMG!

Mike, here is the link:

It's going to be missed.
Hopefully people will start putting these engines into good use like the 2JZ GTEs

BTW the video is too short

I love this engine too. But I think a lot of the appeal of the 2JZ GTE is it's availability at a relatively low cost and an aftermarket that isn't extremely expensive (plus they are bulletproof) and I just don't think the M156 falls into that category.

In any case, if I ever let my C63 go, I will be teary eyed handing over the keys. I might just try and keep it forever like my first car, my Lexus.

Turbos are the way to go. Its about time Mercedes joined the club. A friend of mine has a
Golf R stage 2 with a tune, exhaust, air filters, and intercooler and he runs low 12's around 115mph. Seeing that made me want to get me a turbo car!!!

your mom
As highlighted by Chris in that video, I have a strong reason to keep my C63 for quite some time.

I DD it now and I am actually considering adding another DD so I drive the C63 maybe on the weekends. If I manage to keep this car until 2018. That'll be the longest I've spent with any car. I am targeting for more.
