So it turns out the C 63 S is at the NY auto show!... And in matte black! With yellow trim on the seats! OMG AMG!

On sale in December in the US, and I’m sure you can order them before then. I’ll be first in line!

I feel like they're holding back on the changes for this face lift in terms of performance. Maybe because there's going to be a c63R or black series. Not worth trading in the current c63 for this new one imo. I'd wait for the c63 R

matte black 2019 C 63 S at the NY auto show
Snagged some gorgeous pics of the matte black 2019 C 63 S at the NY auto show using the capture button on the video tool and using the "car" view (3 views to choose from during playback). Really cool video tech for a simple announcement -- thank you Mercedes!

Personally, I believe Mercedes has done a wonderful job with this facelift its a nice mid cycle refresh the new tailpipes look really cool as they dont seem to be a "dummy" anymore. The grille is awesome although I still like the old grille both look aggressive, cannot wait to see the new one on some KW HAS... oh and that 9g transmission Imagine the power it can handle !

From all that's been released/published so far the big winner here seems to be the non S variant as it's steeped up and received a lot which was previously exclusive to the S.
BTW there's one frontal pic there above which seems to be off another model, maybe E or GT 4 door as it shows a 4 matic + logo and trimming on the front fender ??
There's no official word yet on an R variant, but if that happens it would be awesome and definitely the pic of the bunch of this 205 series

Looks good! I don't think this car needed more power so I'm not upset about the same power ratings being carried over. Car and Driver mentioned AMG "elaborately" retuned the suspension so that's what I'm really looking forward to.
Next 1-2 years will be a tough choice between this and a lightly used E63.

Really? If you listen to the intro video it sounds really really different. And I think I read somewhere it comes with three new exhaust profiles.

the exhaust sound a bit more racier in this video. They definitely change something. I remember reading about how they re-engineer the exhaust sound.

Agreed Uga, I'd wait for the R/Black Series or even the W206. I'm still baffled as to why the C43 facelift got the new lower front apron similar to the style that all current AMG's have, while the C63 didn't. I mean if you look at the GLC63, the panamericana grille works because it has the GTR inspired lower front vents and apron...I think some of the decision makers over at AMG need a little reality check.

I couldn't find the article but I found a video on all the changes including re-engineer exhaust. skip to @1:03

In this new video, Tobias says “new color, matte black” around 2:20... is he talking about the interior or the exterior?

There is one new interior option that has yellow highlighting on the seats and the stitching, somewhat similar to the ED1 C63 when it first came out. There are also a few new open poor wood trim options, but I haven’t seen any pics of them.
