2005 SL55 AMG
The C63 is really hot. I really like what they have done to the w204. It's very aggressive and I really believe what everyone is saying how it will kick ***!
Is it me or the front fenders look a lot wider than the rear? Or is that just the angle from the pictures? very intersting to say the least

Panoramic roof on my S63 Amg!
Mercedes Benz does make panorama roof for ///amg's. My new S63 Amg has parorama roof but ovbiously it was an option, not stock. Im putting custom brabus monoblock S rims on my black interior and exterior s63 amg. (Already put tints on rear windows and the one all the way in back. Im also tinting my rear lights in my own custom way. Will post pics once its ready!

In terms of top speed by getting the sport package mercedes increases the limiter to kick in at around 186 mph. So with no limiter i can see the c63 hitting close to 200 mph.

I think that car is hot! I bet a Black or White would be the cats meow... nut the pewter doesn't do justice. Also I'm on the fence with the wheels? they look almost too big.

if priced around mid 60's..
there is no way I would take a pre-owned E63 over the C63. Despite the additional HP. I rather have less weight, more aggressive handling and braking and new chasis.
the missing 50hp will be easy to add on.
I'll take a white one please. I still like the other 030 wheels better than the multi-spoke wheels shown here.

Everything looks great besides the giant dog ear rearview mirrors, & why in the hell would they not make the rear fenders aggressive & symmetrical to the front??
It looks like an AMG front mated to a NON-AMG rear? totally F'd up the overall design! shame it's so beautiful besides those 2 glaring issues...

Idk, I'm just guessing here. Rear fender is one of the largest exterior body panels, and probably the most involved to install. It goes from the rear up to C pillar to the roof and down to A pillar. So it could drive the price even higher if MB had to customize such a large body panel only for their AMGs. Probably they'd rather spend the money on the front appearance upgrades. Again, I'm just guessing.
I'm sure their design team had a thorough discussion about this.
Don't get me wrong, I would love to see matching rear fenders too.

Maybe to keep the production cost down ? Idk, I'm just guessing here.

Come to think about it, matching rear fenders might come out as C63 facelift in 2012, along with forced induction 63 engine. Who knows.
