C63 coupe
New to the Forums

Hi Everyone,

My names Ryan and I am a proud new owner of a 2012 C63 coupe. Its white on black, carbon fiber trim. I must say as previously being a Japanese import owner ( Toyota Supra and Lexus IS300) this is a very nice change. The handling, the sound even the little attention to detail is amazing.

I have been modifying cars for about 10 years and now want to do a few small things to my C63. I was looking into how I can lower the car a little bit Not sure if this car is like other mercedes models with airbags or if coilovers can do the trick. I have been doing a little bit of research but have not found anything yet.

Any input at all I would gladly appreciate!

thanks a lot

Ryan

Congrats on the 12 coupe. HR and KW coilovers have adjustable height. If you are interested, someone is selling a brand new KW setup here: https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...w-v3-bnib.html

I don't think they will fit the coupe 63 though

I surely don't want to be the test dummy for $2400 lol

Congrats on the new C63 Coupe. Very nice, enjoy!

I think H&R has springs (20mm drop) but no coil-overs announced as of yet and none for KW either. Probably won't be too long till they are out.
