2009 c63 all carbon fiber trim on inside, has Alcantara steering wheel , does not have red brake calipers, not sure what else to look for ,any help appreciated

THe best option - check the VIN with a dealer.

But they didnt paint calipers on 2009 in red. So check your rotors as well - they must(could still) be 2 pcs.

But sounds like you have Perf Package with a carbon fiber trim package

PM me your VIN and I'll send you the datacard

beaststunt

It does have 2 piece rotors

callmiro

Carbon fiber trim was an option on all.

Performance Pack included Alcantera Wheel / 2 piece rotors / lowered slightly / LSD / Speed limited removed to 186 MPH

It looks like yours probably is

need2speed

Yes, you have P30 Performance Package. I'll send you a PDF of the data card.

beaststunt

Nice you made my day thanks man!!!

Grey intake manifold is best visual clue

beaststunt

Does this mean an increase in HP or just the limiter removed

need2speed

Sorry, no hp increase with the P30 package, but more important upgrades to the chassis so you can take greater advantage of the existing power. AMG themselves refer to the P30 as a handling package which "provides considerably better driving dynamics and an even sportier vehicle handling".

beaststunt

thanks you have been a great help ,I'm new to the c63, I love this car learning alot about it on the forum

need2speed

You'll be pleased to know the C63 with P30 was faster around the Hockenheim short loop than the Edition 507 by 0.2 seconds

I am Jeff

His kidneys and lower back will hate him for ,having the P30 suspension....

Valvestud

Why do you indicate no HP increase? That's one of the main parts of the PP. I'd like to see the VIN or Datacard.

Mazspeed

The p31 is the increased power pack I believe.

Valvestud

Look at the datacard. I think you'll find the option that's called increased output.

beaststunt

only thing I see is 251(increased speed limit for NAFTA)
Don't know what that means, and P30 AMG performance package, no increased output

Valvestud

Please post your VIN. I'd like to run Datacard. Just not making sense to me.

You are confusing the P30 pack with the P31 (PP). The P30 pack did not increase HP, the P31 did (481hp). I remembered back in 09 when I was looking at the C63 I asked why they didn't increase power for the P30.

Valvestud

Interesting. I've provided many, many Datacards, and all P30s had increased output.

beaststunt

Did they make any p31 in 09 with increased output, on my car P30 is speed limiter removed and what is top speed just curious

ced357

It is possible I was misinformed, but I thought power increased cars started later like 2010 or 2011.

The P31 package started in the 2010 MY with Dec '09 production. So the split from P30 to the P31 package started with build dates at some point in December 2009. The top speed for both packages was raised to 174mph. I had a 2010 P31 package car and it listed option code P30 AMG Performance Package on the data card. You had to go by the build date. If prior to the December 2009 build date there was no performance increase after that there was a 30 hp performance increase. All 2009 MY C63 in NA had no performance increase and the same for 2010 MY C63 with build dates until December 2009.

+1. I have a 2009 P30, no HP increase.

I am Jeff

You're not misinformed. You are correct that 2009 P30 performance package only included increased speed limit, rougher suspension, true 2 piece rotors, and alcantra steering wheels. P30 production lasted until December 2009, so some 2010 C63's have P30's. P31's came into production January 2010 and onward.
