\"Mercedes-AMG<\/a><\/p>\n

This powerfully muscular performance car, the second generation Mercedes-AMG C 63 coup\u00e9, is the car that Mercedes is relying on to steal the limelight from other performance coup\u00e9s such as the BMW M4 and the Audi RS5.<\/p>\n

About to make its debut at Frankfurt, the Mercedes-AMG C 63 coup\u00e9 oozes both aggression and elegance, and it’s got the substance to back up both of these qualities. Powered by the same twin-turbo, 4-litre, V8 engine as the recently introduced saloon and estate versions. The C63 S top of the range coup\u00e9 packs 503bhp, which makes it the most powerful car in its class.<\/p>\n

Official figures released by AMG state that the car is capable of accelerating to 62mph from a standstill in just 3.9 seconds, which is almost half a second faster than its predecessor. The cars top speed is electronically limited to 155mph, although a \u201cDriver\u2019s Package\u201d is said to be available which apparently lifts the top speed to 180 mph.<\/p>\n

The style of the new C63 is significantly different from the standard C-Class coup\u00e9, with the only shared elements being the frameless doors, roof and boot. The remainder of the vehicle has been purposefully designed for this new release, including a revised and unique chassis.<\/p>\n
