Following the tradition, the C-Class Sport Coupe is next in line for AMG tuning. Shown here is likely the 3.0-liter in-line five-cylinder turbodiesel. The 200-horsepower AMG turbodiesel would be a first for the AMG lineup. In addition to the 3.0-liter turbo-diesel, the AMG C32 engine will also be offered.

To the casual observer, the most noticeable exterior changes include new dual exhaust tips and a revised front fascia with larger air intakes, and, of course, AMG wheels and brake calipers.

The AMG versions of the C-Class Sport Coupe are not expected to be introduced until sometime in 2003 as 2004 models.

Well, I've already got the tires.....:p

 

Something just seems sooooooo wrong with that picture of a C32 coupe in SNOW!!

I can see getting that thing up to about 15 mph..... on a good day...

 

personally i think the rear wheels should be wider.. it kinda looks wimpy with the thin wheels... just my opinion

 

Looking good!

but fatter wheels would be nice! but i really like the AMG skirts

Mercedes-AMG has developed a special vehicle for lovers of ultimate driving pleasure: the C 32 AMG Sports Coupé combines powerful high-tech driving with the highest technical standards and a compact stylish design.

The superior performance of the well-known AMG-V 6 Compressor motor, which already assures dynamic driving fun in the SLK 32 AMG and in the C 32 AMG models, provides the ultimate driving sensation in the C 32 AMG Sports Coupé. With a top performance of 354 PS (260 kW) at 6100 rpm and a maximum torque of 450 nm at 4400 rpm, the coupé possesses a driving power that can compare with that of high performance sports cars.

In only 5.2 seconds this agile two-door design accelerates to 100 km/h (62.5 mph); top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h (156 mph).

The power transfer is handled by the proven AMG Speedshift 5-speed automatic transmission, combining the advantages of an automatic transmission with the dynamic immediateness of a standard transmission, thus ensuring an authentic sporty driving experience.

The perfect interplay between the altogether and specially fine-tuned shock absorber elements, the re-enforced stabilizers and - compared with the production model - 1.18 in. (30 mm) lower chassis warrant superior sporty dynamics, optimised road handling and high-grade controllability in the threshold ranges. Shorter braking distances and high long-term load ratings are made possible through the all-round interior-ventilated brake disks of the AMG High performance braking system which is perforated at the front axle.

The compact elegance of the C 32 AMG Sports Coupé is further emphasized by the dominant design of the front apron and the brawny rear apron. The newly developed exhaust system with double-flow exhaust gas venting emphasizes the stylish rear look of the vehicle and also guarantees a classy cool sound experience of the extra-class.

The exclusive sporty appearance is completed by the 18-inch AMG-alloy wheels, the AMG multi-function steering wheel and the AMG combination-instrument with 300 km/h tachometer.

It sounds like they will offer only an automatic. That is lame. When will Mercedes realize that some people would PREFER to drive a manual transmission?
