Nice find. I've been looking for pics of the 2012 C63 from the Geneva show. All the changes look pretty good, even the new head lights which I wasn't too sold on before.

I still wonder if MCT is a big gap to our transmission, if not, I'm still very happy with my current model... Need to test drive the c63 with MCT when it arrives.

My local dealer tried to entice us over to one. Sadly, I don't think it fits the bill for us. What's the story with trailer hitches? Dealer said they don't have any for this car (none was delivered with the car and we looked in the trunk). We would absolutely need one for our bike rack...

In any event, we're not seriously looking right now. In another year when all the bugs are worked out of present models. Not too hot about the RS4 going over to a supercharger.

Matte black would indeed be nice...just a lot of work, especially in snowy countries.

I test drove an E63 with MCT back to back with a C63 and the MCT does have significantly quicker shift times. Shift times were my only real complaint on my '09 C63 so looking forward to the '12 model. It's amazing how raw a C63 feels/sounds after driving the E63

Had the same experience when test-driving the E63 back to back with my w211 E63. Amazingly fast shifts compared to our current gearbox. Downshifts atm are a drag..
