If the C63 coupe black is going to cost double the price (im guessing between 200k to 300k AUD) of facelift c63, I would rather get the facelift c63 and still have plenty of money left to Mod the xhit out of the facelift c63..

Yea no doubt, if I had the big bucks then I would use that money for a SLS.

What he said. I had no idea about the BS pricing, but based on what i've read here it's gonna be ridiculously more expensive than the "regular" C63, and at that point an SLS is definitely more value for money...imho.

Adore the cleaner look of the new facelift. The steering wheel is fugly, but I will reserve further comments til I see it in person. Loving the rest of the interior setup although the pop-up sat-nav still remains cool in my books.

One major dislike: Comparing the pics with the outgoing C63, bonnet looks visibly shorter. That alters the overall aggressiveness of the car, which is a shame. Hope when viewed in person, I will be floored by its new design.

SLS is around 500k+ AUD here (458 or superleggera territory), so if the C63 Coupe BS is around 250-300K , it will be targetting people who is after 911 GT3,Audi R8 v8,AM Vantage v8.

True...my bad

The interrior and trany are awesome, but I do like that we can hide the screen in our current models.

Exterrior, I like the new bumper and tail lights, the rest not so much. I wonder if they fit on or current ones? Can not wait to mod mine now.

interior looks amazing

According to Kema's other thread, he translated the text and the hood will be aluminum. Now that is a plus!

what tranny does current model have if its not mct??

Jycke

Just a regular automatic with a torque converter as opposed to this one that uses a wet clutch.

I really like the new front but I noticed something quite disturbing...
Is it just me?

Jycke

Disturbing indeed...

From the photos that I've seen, I think AMG has done a good job with the exterior of the C63. I would buy one, if I didn't already purchase one 8 months ago.

Big deal the new C63 comes with the Mct and a subtle facelift. The motor is the same,no bump in hp. What boggles my mind is why would someone trade in their current 09-10 c63 for a car thats virtually identical? I guess people like to throw their money away.

Not just you at all. Maybe not twins but siblings for sure.

Here's a more "trivial" question. Do you think the facelift will offer functions such as the distronic and nightvision?

GHAZAN

what car is that in the comparo?

olszowa12

IMO it would make no sense - especially nightvision because it would push the price of the car almost into the E63 price range.

That is a Skoda built in the Czech Republic and it is the daughter company from VAG or VW.

Jycke

I mainly meant as options, not standard. It's not that expensive

Looks to me that the silver Estate in the press photos has night vision. Note the star on the grill of that car is "filled in" while the white sedan's is not?

Jycke

Good observation could at least the the distronic. I've heard it's quite comfortable in rush hour...
