Here is a brief Description of the C63. This is a perfect low mile car that has been garage kept and has never been driven in rain or in winter due to cinders and road salt. The underside of the car looks brand new as well. The performance is unbelievable. Shoehorning the V8 into this car was more than a matter of greasing it up and stuffing it in, though. Spitzner says, "We wanted AMG to get back into this C-class segment, but we wanted to do it right." Adopting the approach of BMW's M group and Audi's Quattro GmbH, AMG made substantial changes to the chassis. It moved the engine two inches closer to the firewall and lowered its cradle, resulting in an somewhat BMW-like front/rear weight distribution of 54/46 percent and revised suspension geometry that affords a lower roll center. While it was at it, AMG installed a longer front axle that carries a three-link front suspension twice as rigid as the base car's, paying dividends in steering and braking precision. The steering itself is quicker, with a ratio of 13.5:1 instead of 14.5:1, and it is unobtrusively speed sensitive. Our market will get standard 18-inch wheels, which make room for 14.2-inch, six-piston-front/13.0-inch, four-piston-rear cross-drilled and vented brakes. AMG also installed its Speedshift Plus transmission, a seven-speed manumatic with three modes: Comfort mode swaps gears most leisurely; Sport speeds up changes by about 30 percent; Manual is 20 percent faster still. This is the automatic that aspires to be a twin-clutch transmission - it revs to just under the fuel cut out, automatically blips the throttle for downshifts, and upshifts instantaneously, without upsetting the load balance of the car. The C63 gets a few new body panels, such as a blistered hood (not functional), and new fenders and lower aprons with lots of cooling gills and four exhaust tips (functional). Inside, the car's relatively austere origins make themselves known in the rectilinear dashboard design that, unlike other Benzes, does without much trim. The 16-way leather sport seats, however, feel like they slid off a side of Wagyu beef. There's a wonderful incongruity to this car, a kind of high-spirited ridiculousness that you don't get in the Audi RS4 or the BMW M3. Even the base A4 and 3-series cars have the kind of pliability that invite aggressive driving. The C-class, on the other hand, traditionally has been what you tell your mom to buy. So even though I went through the technical briefing before my drive, I was still expecting a mild-mannered - if very powerful - Benz, sort of a tidier and lower-riding version of the AMG R-class. That was stupid. First of all, this engine might be hand-built in Affalterbach, but it speaks in the chaw-spitting patois of Mooresville, North Carolina. Open the throttle anywhere between 2000 and 6500 rpm, and you might think you've been teleported to the stands at Charlotte, only without your beer and with all your teeth. It's all pulsing drama, bass-heavy vibrato, and window-rattling brown notes. The power delivery is heavy and locomotive-like, pulling just as strongly from 60 to 120 mph as it does from 0 to 60 - a sprint that happens, for the record, in 4.2 seconds. But it's not only fast and remarkably stable in a straight line: The chassis's reflexes feel faster than even the very quick throttle response or the reciprocating parts it controls. Turn in is as flat and crisp as a Saltine. The C63 sets up for a bend promptly, but the body is so tightly controlled that it only leans enough to humor the driver's inner ear. The brakes grip hard and fast, with a high degree of pedal feel for such a small amount of travel. Short, ultra-aggressive ride motions have no rebound, and very little harshness. In fact, the whole car has an astounding economy of motion, thanks to its ingot-like structure. And most men wish their girlfriends were as faithful and perfectly weighted as this car's steering.

Mercedes-Benz C-Class scores well in TUV lifecycle analysis

Sat, Mar 29 2014

Mercedes-Benz drivers and treehuggers don't always go hand in hand, but, like a lot of other companies, the German automaker is looking to boost its green cred. This time, it's all about the car's lifecycle carbon footprint. The Daimler AG unit is using its new C-Class sedan as an example of how it's making progress in that department. Mercedes-Benz, citing the inspection authority TUV Sud, says the 2015 C-Class has a 10-percent lower lifecycle carbon footprint than its 2014 predecessor, based on driving about 125,000 miles over the life of the car. About 95 percent of the car (by weight) is recyclable, slightly higher than the average for most vehicles, and the model has upped its amount of recyclable materials up by 23 percent and increased its use of "natural materials" by 55 percent. Better aerodynamics also helps things out on the fuel-economy front, Benz says. Taking a longer view, the 2015 C-Class's carbon footprint is 28 percent better than the 2007 version that launched the vehicle line. The 2015 C-Class hasn't received a fuel-economy rating from the US Environmental Protection Agency, which tagged the 2014 C350 with a combined fuel-efficiency rating of 24 miles per gallon from its 3.5-liter 6-cylinder engine. Check out Mercedes-Benz's press release below and find the Autoblog First Drive impressions here. TUV Environmental Certificate: The new C-Class makes its mark with an exemplary life cycle assessment Stuttgart, Mar 28, 2014 The C-Class sets efficiency benchmarks for its class, helped by an intelligent lightweight concept, excellent aerodynamics and new, frugal engines. The neutral inspectors from the TUV Sud technical inspection authority have confirmed the high level of environmental compatibility of the new Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Besides a sensuous, clean-cut design, a top-class interior and a host of technical innovations, the premium saloon also boasts an exemplary life cycle assessment, which is why it has been awarded the Environmental Certificate in accordance with the ISO 14062 standard. Professor Dr. Herbert Kohler, Chief Environmental Officer at Daimler AG: "Our engineers have pulled out all the stops in an effort to lower fuel consumption while at the same time further accentuating the car's sporty character. By employing an intelligent lightweight design with a high proportion of aluminium, for example, it has been possible to make the new C-Class up to 100 kilograms lighter than its predecessor.

Mercedes-AMG once again joins forces with Cigarette Racing

Fri, Jan 30 2015

Any time there's a new loins-quaking Mercedes-AMG introduced, you need to keep your eye on the aquatic horizon around the time of the Miami International Boat Show for the Cigarette tie-in to come roaring into port. The SLS AMG had its 2,700-horsepower, 46-foot Rider, the C63 AMG Black Series got a 1,350-hp, 50-foot Marauder, the G63 AMG got a 1,750-hp, 43-foot Huntress, and the SLS AMG E-Cell got a matching wild yellow 2,200-hp, 38-foot electric concept boat. Now that we're in 2015 with another AMG and another boat show, we have another Cigarette. Mercedes hasn't dropped the goods on this one yet, but it will be twins with the AMG GT. After that, we're guessing it will have a can't-miss-it paint job, be in the 40-foot range, and have something like 2,000 hp. The show is February 12-16, we'll have all the info for you then.
