'15 C63 507 Coupe
The wait is finally over...........
Took delivery of my 507 about 10 weeks ago. Obsidian Black, Porcelain/black interior. Only complaint is the ride is a bit hard due to low profile tires. On the other hand the car is a runner. Broke it in and took it to the track. 1st pass was a 12.16 @ 117.55. Bone Stock!!
The hard ride disappeared as soon as I saw the slip....
Atmospheric conditions were not conducive to performance. I'm guessing with better conditions car has an 11 second pass in it.

Nice ride! Congrats! What launch method did you use to give you the best results? Also, why does your trap speed seem so low? Most stock C63s trap 185+ kph.

I thought the same thing. Good mph stock.

I hazed the tires just a bit. Staged, S+, 1 click on T/C control and matted it. Didn't use manual shift mode.Only made the one pass then I had to go. But I was impressed with the results for a bone stock application.

Congrats on the beautiful car, it looks just like mine
I just had new tires installed on mine recently and changed from the OEM Continental ContiSportContact 5Ps to Michelin Pilot Super Sports 245/35R19 Fronts and 275/30R19 Rears and the ride is much better now
