That is stretch even if rated as engine hp. The add writer probably doesn't know the difference between FWHP and RWHP.

I've been to this car dealer a while back (2011) when I was living in dallas. It is located in addison. Small dealer mainly high end used cars. At that time i was looking for a M3!lol! The guy I talked to didn't seem to be very knowledgeable. Just trying to sell what he had in inventory.
So I'm not surprised about this power description for the C63

This car was sold from one small dealer to another. I've been looking at C63's in the Dallas area for awhile now and my guess is it will take a heck of a price to sell this car. People just don't want to buy these cars modded. The stretch on HP stood out to me as well with just a tune. This makes me not want to mod my car any more than minor bolt on's because there will be literally no market for it if I need to sell. Been thinking about headers for awhile now but after seeing this and monitoring the used market on these cars, I'd rather take that money and the cost it'd take to get them installed/uninstalled should I have to trade it in and use it to save up and buy a 2012+ facelifted car.

Agreed but at least with a tune that is installed via handheld, you can put it back to stock as you wish.
Also, if you didn't want to be bothered with it, no one will know it is even tuned if you were to leave it on.
Headers, Exhaust, other bolt on items may be easier to detect...
