V-8 C Coupe?
I saw an ad in Merecedes Enthusiast Magazine (from the UK), which referred to a Brabus-modified V8 C-Coupe.

Anyone know any more about this, or what other engines the tuners have shoehorned in the coupe?

The only V8 you are gonna see in a coupe is a can of that red tomato-based concoction you see in the grocery store.

I still think it would be a better deal to put in a DaimlerChrysler 426 Hemi in there. It's cool to tell people that you have a V8 in your coupe but you'll get a better reaction if you tell them you put a Hemi in there.
