price??

Hmmmm, that is interesting. Maybe there will be some running changes in the C class so they will implement them early. One change will hopefully be a new 350 engine, and there might be some interior refinements along with mirrors like the GLK that would affect all lines.

Mercedes is not going to price out the current C32/55 owners by much on this one. Otherwise they will lose their niche as others already pointed out. I'm guessing 56,500k base- 66,500k loaded for the C63.
If mercedes follows pricing from the E55 to E63, the base price for the C63 should be $3,200 more than the 2006 C55.
The 2006 E55 base price was (MSRP $82,575*) and 2007 E63 is ($85,775*)
Good news if I'm right! We'll see very soon...

C300 Sport
i was at my dealer's placing order for my C300 sport when I saw the C63 on display...here was how the conversation went:
Me: "Thats one sweet ride out there"
SalesMan: "True...a great ride and it would be one of the best things you could buy for 90 grand USD"
Me (thinking): "WTF!!!! 90Gs for a C!!""
Me: "Thats one sweet ride out there"
SalesMan: "True...a great ride and it would be one of the best things you could buy for 90 grand USD"

Come on.... No way the C63 is going to cost anything close to that. E63 base is $86k. If I could upgrade from a C63 to an E63 for an extra $4000, nobody would ever buy the C63.

I still think it's going to be 56,500k base - 66,500k loaded for the C63.
Yeah, no way it's going to be close to the E63 price.
This is a stand off with the M3 on pricing... We'll know very soon!

I've heard rumors of base price in the low 60's. The W204 C350 base is $37K (about 45 loaded) and I don't see the C63 being priced more than 25K or so higher then the C350. Any higher then that and you will get into E AMG range.
As someone considering the C63 vs. the redesigned E class in a few years, I am assuming the price is going to be similar so I will choose to AMG or not to AMG based on what the new E looks like rather than the cost.

I don't think it's going to be cost more than a M3 due to the market share. On top of it, it has to be lower than M3 becasue BMW has the 4 years free maintenance. My 2 cents.
