The evo 65 article on the cl forum says AMG bench tests all their engines for a minute under full load! Maybe only a 10 minute break-in needed for the car...just to bed the brakes.

Those little C55's were a blast at homestead. Still very nimble and easy to throw around even though they were alot more front heavy cuz of the bigger engine. They sounded awesome....almost exactly like an SL55 or E55. The interior was also very nice with alcantara on the seats.

The biggest thing you can see in the pics is that they ride lower by about 1-2 inches.

it seem that ALL MB engines are broken in at factory already by revving them up for a little while then get shipped to where ever it's going.

Nothing
Maybe it's only me, but that nose on the C55 looks way too long. The rest of the car however, looks really nice especially the quad exhausts. Maybe it will look different in person(?).
