2027 C63 waiting room anyone else?
So disappointed in the 4 cylinder abomination, like everyone else. Waiting for that supposed i6 version in a 2026 refresh or MY 2027.
Gonna be a long wait

Are they calling it C 53? Instead?

Good question. Some articles seem to say it will be called that instead.

Curious if they will make the M256 an actual hand-built engine and lots of components will need to be changed as well (I think?)

What were you disappointed in the most? What do you think you'll get for a trade for your 4 cyl version?

only acceptable way is to make it hand built and allows it to redline at 7200+. the M256 at 6200 redline is boring in a sport sedan.

Never saw one with that many posts before.
Looking forward to see if MB goes back to the V8 as

C63 - W204
Mercedes-AMG boss Michael Schiebe confirmed the news during an interview Thursday. Schiebe said the company will be "replacing our four-cylinder" with the inline-six and that "the engine will also come to the C-Class."

"That means we will also have C 53 in our portfolio," Schiebe continued. "We're taking the combustion engine from the CLE 53. No hybrid engine — pure inline six-cylinder."
