Seem like 18" AMG C350 is around 1800 rpm and C350 with 17" AMG is around 2000 rpm.

Finally got out on the open highway last night and had a chance to check. Pretty well dead on at 2450 rpm. One thing I noticed for the first time is how the dials are set up, the needle actually makes it hard to read the gauge markings directly under it...guess I haven't been watching my speed very carefully...

As it turns out, the C63 has the same ratio as the C350, and has a LSD as an option. Just need to find the part # for the W204 LSD, now that would be awesome on the C300 6MT.

Has anyone been able to confirm or deny the possibility to fit the C63 LSD on other 204 models?

C350, 2000 at 120Km/h, very nice.

Question, you with revs lower than 2000 do you find the car runs more in 6th gear ??

That is a sweet set of numbers you have there; 2,000rpm for 120/h. I love it...definitely my kind of smooth cruise!
