Thank you sir! As far as going for sedan vs coupe - there really wasn't much to consider

c63 coupe
I dunno, but waiting one more year for a brand new c63 makes more sense ... getting the last batch isnt a good idea.

Edit: Unless you need it now or money is no object

I think most would agree getting the first batch would be a bad idea.

Unless you're specifically avoiding the new turbo engines.

Not arguing that but it will sting to see a new shape out on the streets within a year after you spend all that money no matter how you slice it, hence for me saying might as well wait for the new one.

Not interested in a small displacement turbo c63.

I for sure want the 507. It'll stand out among all the "new" c63s next year and will be way more special than standard 2015 c63 - anyone with cash can just go grab one of those. The 507 is a single year production car. Has never been made and will never be again.

Here's a good explanation why I prefer the 6.2 to the 5.5TT - people just like it better and I'm one of 'em.

However many are ordered.

The 507 package is a new fancy name for the performance package with a few aesthetics to BOOST sales, not limit sales. It's going to be as collectable as the Affalterbach edition, edition 1, IWC edition, avantgarde edition, and other new model/year end special packages.

I have to disagree with you on this. This is the only version that has ever broken the 481hp mark other than the black series. More than that, it's the last year of a generation that has undoubtedly changed the game. Any rational minded person would consider the 507 far more coveted than any of the aforementioned editions.

rage2 is right. It's however many are ordered. However, being a single year production on the last year of the generation, I expect them to be relatively low on the numbers produced - especially since most want that little 5.5 liter for 2015.
