C AMG 63S 2020
Unhappy My 2020 C AMG 63S is slow

Hello everyone,

I've been driving new 2020 AMG C63S Coupe MB for the past few weeks and this car drives much slower and less responsive than my previous 2020 AMG C63 Coupe as well. I drove non S model for a month and that car was a bullet compared to the new S model. It takes at times second or two for a new car to start accelerating after pushing the pedal to the floor (with or without kickdown). I tried measuring 0-60 on a Highway with the Track Race - Drag mode and it showed me that my new car accelerated to 60 in 5+ seconds. Any tips or hints about what I might be doing wrong or maybe I should take the car to a service? I've been driving it on Sport + or Race mode.

. I felt the same. I now have 6,000 miles on my 2019 c63s coupe and after 2,000 miles the car is a dream to drive with everything broken in and responsive. There are restrictions during break in period (1,000 miles) that Dealership informed me. Like not going over 85 and driving in Comfort mode and a Rev. restrictions.
