2019 C63 Coupe
Just picked up a 2019 C63 have some questions

Hey guys, im new here and just picked up a brand new 2019 C63 (non S) Coupe. Im currently at 200 miles on the odometer. I just had a couple of questions. First of all does the non S c63 have launch control? If so is it only activated after break in? The second question I have is ive seen videos, where you can use the drive unit to control the level of traction control thats applied, is that only a S model feature or does mine have it too?


Thank You

The 9 stage traction control feature is linked to the RACE mode which is not available on the base C63

Well, that's unfortunate lol. How about the launch control does it exist on the base c63?

Believe that launch control is part of Race mode, so likely no. Don't hold me to that though.

Both launch control and the 9-stage traction control are only available on S models. LC is also only possible after 1000 miles.

RACE start (aka launch control) is available on both C63 and C63S as per the manual. It is available only after the break-in period, i.e. after crossing 1,000 miles.

The RACE drive program in DYNAMIC SELECT however is available only on C63S.

Non-S launch control must be new for the FL. Good if true. Always thought it made sense for 43/53’s to not have launch control, but full 63 AMG’s definitely should.

Honestly, over this past month ive dealt with about 10 benz dealerships and not a single one of them treated me anywhere near as good as Walters In Riverside. Eddy was the one that helped me and he blew my mind with his amazing customer service. Some other dealers were extremely rude and it crazy how they are still open. One of the general managers was a complete *** and would cuss and tell me he dose not Fu*king give a Sh*t what other deal ive found and was throwing out stupid prices refusing to budge on his price. That car was 5k cheaper than this one and was almost base this thing loaded and i paid exactly what I wanted to pay from the start. Another dealer wrote me a rude email when i told them i don't need them anymore because they dont have the car i want and i found the car i want somewhere else. Pretty ridiculous.
