Official: C63 AMG Coupe Black Series

Minus the spoiler, this this is seriously not. Where did you get this pic Sunny?

I believe this is the optional carbon sport pack or something like that. Aero pack I think.

You might be right!

The Aerodynamic Package features carbonfibre aerodynamic add-ons for the front bumper and a fixed, carbon rear spoiler.

The C63 BS picture that Sunny posted is the AMG Aerodynamics pack (and looks awesome btw). Here's what the press release says about it.

AMG Track Package and AMG Aerodynamics package

AMG has two special packages to offer for enhancing driving dynamics even further: the AMG Track Package comprises 255/35 R 19 front and 285/30 R 19 rear sports tyres from Dunlop. They have been exclusively developed for the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupé Black Series, and they tangibly and measurably increase grip. Active rear-axle transmission cooling improves performance in punishing race-track conditions. The radiator is located in the rear apron and the airflow passes through it effectively.

What are known as flics are part of the AMG Aerodynamics package. They are made of genuine carbon fibre and located on the front apron. Also included in the package are a functionally tuned front splitter made of genuine carbon fibre and a fixed carbon-fibre rear aerofoil with an adjustable blade. Both components not only increase the lift at the front and rear axle; they also optimise the vehicle's aerodynamic balance.

Here's one more picture.

Where are you all getting those pics?

The BMW boys over there seem to like the C63 more than the M3 GTS.

I want this car, but I don't think it would make a good daily driver. Too loud and raw probably.

[LaArtist]

^Fitting date ehh martin?
Its my B-day..and i think ive been called Postal

 

[martinbo]

Hey hey! Happy Birthday you postal muthasucka!

A fitting date for any petrolhead, let alone a solid Merc aficionado. Hope you had a great day. Now go to bed and stop gloating about how heavily this bruiser must be raining on the BMW fanboy parade.

 

[LaArtist]

Haha..thnx man ile just take the popcorn and enjoy the show this time..
One is supposed to be nice on their B day

 

[Merc1]

Yikes. Though I can do without the this package, I would love to have a White one with those Black wheels. I hope Mercedes pulls a surprise and pops the sedan out at the last minute.

I dont like those extra Carbon details, but the rearwing works. I know Tarek like it to, in fact so much he would add aero package for his car

 

[martinbo]

I can't remember ever liking what Mercedes Benz AMG does as much as I do now. I'd take the track package and forego the aerodynamic one. Colour is a difficult choice - looks surprisingly drop-dead in that rich red.

 

[Guibo]

Now that is one really mean Benz..and seriously MB definitely makes the best looking exhausts this days.

...and it looks much better than the M3 GTS with it's ugly over sized rear spoiler IMO.

Ugly, yes. Oversized? I think it looks awkwardly small.

Looking forward to tests of this C63 BS. Seems like all the ingredients are in place for a very fun track car, and I think that's what most owners will be looking for. The ultimate (and rarer) C63 that can withstand some extended track abuse. Whether it's faster/slower than an M3 GTS is largely academic. Most owners will never realize these differences, and the GTS is sold out anyway. This is not to say the M3 GTS will run away dynamically. It's too soon to say. The standard C63 has been praised for steering feel that rivals (and in some cases, betters) the M3, though it gives up some in precision and body control over bumps. That last bit is likely mooted in light of the M3's very hard ride.

Lol no way..i think the "regular" BS is enough for me.

 

[Centurion]

The extra winglets on the bumper for more frontal down force could be too much icing sugar for some, but anyone buying the car for reasons other than vanity will appreciate the additional grip when they hammer this car on a cold German track this winter.

The regular coupe looks so bare and plain now that I've seen the Black Series version. They better really limit BS production and price it higher otherwise they won't be able to give the regular version away.
