Launch Control on the 2010 C63???

Hey everyone, first im new to these forums and i just today bought a brand new 2010 C63 AMG. The dealer said that it has a new launch control feature...? Does anyone know if that is true, and if so, how does it work?

Thanks!!

does the center consol look anything like the e63. like a knob that say c. s. s+. M. if so put the car in s+ hold and the bakes and then revs will rise and once bakes relesed car takes off. good luck tring to find the knob.

Launch Control is only for the new MCT (E63 / SL63 / SLS)

they will have a knob with Comfort mode, Sport Mode, Sports plus mode, and Manual

There will be also the AMG mode on it.

so NO the new c63 doesnt have it.

You forgot (RS) Race Start, which is the setting you need for LC.
