I sold my '15 C63 and went older.

2009 Aston Martin Vantage roadster. I wanted to be topless again.
Not as fast, but with 420 HP, high flow cats and a tune on the way, I should be good for a while.

Do you need or want back seats? What about a 911 or Cayman S variant? 2012 and up SLK55 AMG??
From your list, I would probably go with the E63..

Get the FL C63 then. Or even the E63 if you find one for a good price. Don't get a srt8 though...would be a downgrade and they are ugly as sh*t.

I did a Cayman S build and came up with $72-76k. Maybe you could get it into "the sixties" but, not $60k. Unfortunately...

New or considering used? With that in mind, consider (is something I want) is a used Maserati Gran Turismo. Agreed that many cars are higher performers, but they less common than an AMG, they look great, sound great, finely crafted interior... Downside may be parts/labor (cost of ownership) be more than a C63. I don't know, that's my guess. My two cents. Good luck hunting.

Depends on what you need, if you want a sedan in a similar mold then I'd lean to e63 or a 2014 c63. Like you said you're not getting the w205 for your price range.
If you want to move away from Benz you've got the m cars

If it was me buying today I'd look for the best possible deal on a 2014 e63s
I know I'm speaking in usd and I don't know the conversion at the moment but I'm starting to see these models for 65-75 slightly north of your price but not much

2014 C63 Sedan
I got rid of my C63 2 months ago because I have a 65 mile daily commute to work and with the Chicago winters I couldn't risk driving a rwd. But after driving a C300 4Matic for 2 months I miss every bit of the 63. Almost convinced myself to get a 12' M3 coupe the other day but the interior is just blah on those cars.

With that being said, I am looking for another C63 now as I can't find anything else that would substitute for it.

if you wanna stick with the brand and feel an upgrade, W212 E63 is your best bet or even a CLS63.

Some of you guys need to go take a look at car prices. Yes, I also know how to go to cars.com, select a few filters, and search from the lowest price. But you all know that first car is not the car to buy, you have to scroll a ways to get to clean examples.

One suggestion, however, that stood out here was the RS7. The CHEAPEST on cars.com is $85k, USD. Like, I don't know what kind of "good deal" you can find on one but I need your connections.

Then there were a handful of ATS-V and CTS-V suggestions. Again, the low end examples of ATS-V's are already at the max (actually beyond it) of his budget.

Because he said newer, obviously we're looking at the f10 m5. Not a terrible choice, there will be a handful within your budget, but you have to look at for high miles, accidents, and first MY gremlins. Believe me, the m5 has a few.

The w212 e63 is a nice suggestion, but it is a completely different car. Yeah, it's an AMG, but it is big and more executive feeling than the c63 you're used to. I do like that car though.

My vote, if you absolutely need to get into something newer, I'd get a facelift c63. You know what you're getting and then some. Worry free on the headbolts, upgraded tranny, and some nice new touches in the interior such as the integrated screen. On the other hand, I'd seriously consider just hanging onto what you have for now and save money. Wait 6 months or another year so you can save up that extra $10-$20k on a down payment which makes some of those out of reach options more attainable.

Seriously though, I don't know how long it has been since some of you spent some time look at how much cars cost, but some of these are quite a bit off.

That all said, I have a 13' c63 FS. Here: https://mbworld.org/forums/mercedes-...3-c63-amg.html

Funny....you are getting rid of your '10 because "you want something newer", then end up not being able to afford over half the cars out there that would be "newer" or an "upgrade" to your '10 C63.


2008-2015 C63 is just such an amazing Bang for the Buck....can't beat it. Sorry you felt like you could/wanted to upgrade and discovered you had it so good

the Aston Martin DB10 is a 4.7L V8 with 420 hp and it's 3.8 Mil....the C63 is a 6.2 L V8 with 450+ hp and it was an average $70K.....go figure

It really is a bargain, even the 2014 models are dropping now. Getting out of the c63 segment and prices get a lil hairier
The 2010 I've got does feel very dated compared to 2014-15 modeled cars but...are you buying these for the comfort and tech or for the engine ?
