Wait - are we 100% convinced that this IS a Black Series? I was under the impression that the Black Series would definitely be the Coupe - IF it was even going to be made.

I can't open the link from my office, so i can't see the other pics. But as i'm sure others have noticed, that pic on the original post is a C63 Sedan (pre-face lift.)

Are there other pics in the link?

Hard to believe they're coming out with a BS for the C class. I know you guys like the idea but does it make sense? Whats it going to compete against??

M3 GTS?

Or perhaps just once and for all squash the competition?

In any case I like the idea.

It almost looks ridiculous.

everyone needs to stop complaining of what it looks like, its obviously going to look nothing like that, do we all remember what the SLS looked like during testing? It had the body of a dodge viper. I highly dout Mers./AMG will let out anything ugly out of the factory

The words "NUTS" and "ridiculous" are not necessarily negative in my twisted mind.

Seems to me this is the same car we saw in the spy shots from this thread in November only with the flares painted black.

Thread from November 2010:
https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...spy-shots.html

Photos from that thread:

For reference a similar shot from the new winter photos:

Note it still has the same wheels. I think it's the same car and it's clearly an engineering mule. It is entirely possible that this will morph in to a coupe before it hits the factory... Or it could stay a sedan. Or even better, it could be an Estate and come to America!!!
