Doesn't appear that standard amg cars will ever get the rear fender flares they so desperately need.

Front end looks mean.

At least there are still 6-piston calipers up front (at least it appears that way).

it's definitely different from the w204 (no surprise there), but I like it.

It varies.
Starting to look good, looking forward to seeing more shots without camo!

I do not feel the rounded rear allows for a aestheticlly pleasing wider rear arch.

Personally think it looks a lot softer than the previous models, with its roundedness in general. So much less aggressive looking in my eyes as well... Maybe "classier" if thats what MB is going for. But I certainly don't like the rear end. I could be crazy though who knows

This. The new C63 is growing on me rapidly but a large flared arch wouldn't look right on this droopy rear…just like it wouldn't on the rear of say the old Ford Taurus.

heres some more

http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1...-amg-spy-shots

looks good other than the the rear fenders seem to remain as the base car (very disappointed).

one good news possibly is the article reports DCT? although maybe the person who wrote the article just got it mixed up with MCT

Yeah I saw those too. Love how the car looks from the side attacking the 'ring.

And regarding the DCT, it's likely a goof made by the author.

I was looking at some of the pics and was thinking that the 2015 looks just like the 204, lol. I'm liking the 205 more and more.

Have to say that I certainly prefer the look of pre facelifted c63s, more straight lines n muscular appearance.

As much as I love the current car (and I bought a 507 to get one of the last of the truly anti-social NA motors), I really think this new car is going to be amazing. Please keep us posted as facts (and even rumors) become available. Thanks.

Is the roof going to be carbon fiber or is that a pano?

Don't know whether it's a panoramic roof but there will not be a CF roof option.

Surprised it is blacked out like that. Figured MB may be copying the M3 to hype track performance.

I'm willing to bet that it will still look like a "pansy." It's going to be like the new E-class and the new E63; there's barely a discernible difference between the two.

MB has been pretty disappointing with their exterior designs lately. I'm not saying the new designs are ugly, but they could've went in a much better direction. Such a shame.

I very respectfully disagree.

For example, the W204 C-Class with Sport Package looks almost identical to the W204 LCI C63 from the front. Especially to non-enthusiasts.

There are some subtle differences between the two that enthusiasts can identify. For example: 1) The twin power domes on the hood of the C63 (which the W205 C63 will retain); 2) The grilles; 3) The LED strips on the LCI C63 are positioned at the top of the side air inlets; 4) The slightly bigger front fender flares on the C63; 5) The front splitter on non-black C63s is painted black; 6) The front air inlets are bigger/more aggressive on the C63.

On the other hand, the E63's front fascia has an entirely different structure than that of the W212 E-Class w/ Sport Package. On the E63, an A-wing style front splitter replaces the more conventional shape(s) of the air inlets on the standard E-Class w/ Sport Package.

The same will be true for the W205 C63 AMG. In addition to having a different grille and the hood with the twin power domes, it will have an entirely different structure with respect to the front fascia.

Hm. I guess I will have to wait and see when they actually unveil it...maybe it'll change my mind?
