    The 63 AMG is a monster, no doubt. Saw one yesterday and it looks amazing.

    I love it only as sedan. A freind of mine has one Avant. With Christophe Tinseau behind the steering wheel, it was faster than Porche GT3 at Spa last week...

    7,080 euros buys you a C63 that's quicker than an RS6. Imagine what the RS6 would do to the C63 if you decided to spend the same amount of money on it.

    GAME OVER.
    Search and you will find the truth.

    Correct and you don't need to spend anything on wheels, bodykit or diff as it at least looks the part in basic trim and can already out handle the Merc.

    Why didn't they just give it the full E63 level of power?

    Who says they didn't?

    Just... New E63 is with optional Performance package simply better and faster car overall.

    With Performance package E63 is faster both on the Ring and on Hocknheim then C63 with Performance package.

    Key thing is much better suspension on E63 and wider tires.
