Smile Another review of the C63 AMG Coupé Black Series

Here's another great review of this bad boy.
Mercedes C63 AMG Coupé Black Series - California screaming : http://www.teamspeed.com/forums/amg/...screaming.html

"517 track-tuned horsepower, wild looks and Laguna Seca - what more could we possibly want?"

"In fact, even AMG appears surprised at just how briskly the C63 Black will go round corners. In the hands of ex-DTM Champion and current AMG Ambassador Bernd Schneider, it’s lapping in the 1:36s – a full three seconds quicker than anyone had anticipated."

So far all of the reviews have been nothing but positive as far as the performance aspect. Needless to say the car is a clear winner well maybe except for when MB announces the official pricing.

Consistent 1:36 laps at Laguna Seca !! That is true super car territory. That should quiet some of the naysayers whining about performance for the dollar.
