Beautiful on the outside, love the engine, but very disappointed by the interior
... I sat in the new C-class last week at MB Manhattan. I wish they would have simply left the interior from the 203, the new one is really awful. Looks cheap, plastic landscape, looks like a Chrysler not an MB. After seeing this on the standard C-class, I was hoping that they would improve the interior of C63. However, from the pictures posted above, it doesn't look like there is much difference from the base models.
What happend to the nice white-stitched seats with alcantara from the C55? Also, the middle-console on the new C-class is totally cluttered compared to that on the 203. Very disappointing to say the least...

Just got back from the dealer, the new C63 was there in service, absolutly beautifull I took pic's of the sticker but can't get them to upload.
Off the sticker the price was $94,xxx.xx The horseower on the sticker stated 506 HP, nothing more to say.

Out Of Control!
Hope they realize even though this is the C63 it's still a C class. Talk about price overlapping between this and the E63. 
Tough choice.

Sounds more like an CLS63.

Please find a way to upload those photos to show the sticker. That would go a long way to disspell the 2008 timing thinking and the 465 hp vs. 506 hp battle.

If there was a way for me to justify getting a w204, it'd be this. That being said, I'd still get a different body kit.

I have to agree on the interior. Pop up nav? Lame! The steering wheel also looks very strange, and below the radio simply looks aftermarket put together and isn't very intergrated or seemless. WTF??

C63S coupe, X5M
I think it looks pretty slick for what it is.

What do you mean "slick for what it is"??? I'm simply saying that the interior is ugly compared to what we have in the C55. Additionally, I think when you're paying between $70-80K for a german car, you should expect the interior to be a bit nicer than what you would find in a Dodge or a Nissan.
