True it's hard to know what to call her but the car is registered as a C63 and it is the fastest AMG in the world with a 7 speed MCT

I am sure with reduced weight and going RWD it should do better number but it's good as it is

Not being a troll or d-bag, but I'm genuinely curious on how you / others come up with the "fastest in the world" claims.

Also -- what about JR's CLK? Because he was running 9.1x's...

I know about the clk vs c but OP eventually went on to say fastest amg with mct, not just c.

But, the gearbox there changes everything.

Again, not trying to step on toes here.

Thanks

I would like to make a point clear, if I have built my car with an engine swap and with some clever work installed a 4matic doesn't mean that the identity of my car has changed from its base model, if my car is modded in a way by using complete parts from AMG then I take it by it's a C63, if the modding I have takes away the identity of the car then the same goes with installing a supercharger and changing pistons and connecting rods or reinforcing a gearbox then any change on a car should drop its identity!

Therefor I believe I have a C63 Black Series at least that's what I started with from scratch.

I don't know if it makes sense or not it does to me though.

True JRCart has the fastest Mercedes out there

But it's not a C63
And it didn't run 9.1 with MCT
Putting my car today as the fastest with MCT or maybe the quickest, I believe he ran 151.95 mph with MCT @ 9.757

I just am happy to be the fastest C63 for the moment and fastest AMG goes to JRCart

While I think we can all admire the hard work and creativity that's gone into this, and there's no doubt that it's a C63 shell that has gone down the 1/4 mile faster than any other C-bodied AMG, there's a reason why it's not on the "Fast List" here. No M156 and no RWD means no inclusion, and I don't see that changing or a new category being added. It's just not in the spirit of the list. For instance JRCart once asked why his time wasn't on the list, and I see his point as his car is RWD and has an M156, but it's not a C63 and he agreed.

Not that anyone cares, but I thought I'd make that clear.

But it is ***damn fast, so congrats on that.

Ok makes complete sense I changed the thread title but I will keep it on W204 C63 since it caries the shell

Damn she boogies, 4WD / M157 in a W204 must be nuts.

Congrats on the swap and time. But i agree with the rest, its a bit unfair to call it the fastest C63, with the heart and legs of another car.

Either way, its impressive.!

Twin turbos and AWD on w204 BS is absolutely insane. It's got the insane looks plus an updated engine. Shame about the changed engine tone and 4.0L displacement. This is still a c63, just a w205 c63 LOL

M157 = 5.5L Twin Turbo

And it's been around since 2010 I believe, so not exactly "updated".
