Pleasantly Surprised with my 2012 C63

let me start off but saying I didn't buy this car for it's fuel savings hahaha! I knew it was a gas monster.........

Have about 3500kms on the car... Dunno if the engine is fully broken in yet but, on my last fill till I hit almost empty (too scared to go more in case I was left dead in the water) I've gotten 480kms!

This could probably be the MCT Transmission 10% better fuel mileage Mercedes was talking about...

Anyways, I'm ubber happy!

This is 70% in C mode and the rest in S S+ and M mode. AIn Sport Handling mode 100% of the time.

This was a mix of diving normally and spiritedly (but not killing it)

YAY

Wow, thx for the report.. The new 2012 did improve in fuel economy as I can see.. I only get 250-300km out of 1 tank on my 2010.

Mine will be in M mode all of the time so I'm hopeful to get 250 km per tank . Literally this will be true (the M mode part anyway).
