Outgoing Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe to live on until next spring
Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe 20.03.2011
Will be sold alongside the new C63 sedan & wagon
According to Car & Driver, Mercedes-Benz will continue to offer the outgoing C63 AMG Coupe until next spring.
The new Mercedes-AMG C63 is out but only in sedan and estate body styles which is probably why Mercedes-Benz has decided to keep the old C63 Coupe alive until next spring. C&D mentions this isn't applicable just for the Euro-spec model as the US version will live on as well until spring which means that for a short amount of time the old & new C63s will co-exist in dealerships.
There are some huge differences between the two generations as aside from the name change (Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG to Mercedes-AMG C63), the cars boast entirely different engines, with the old C63 packing a naturally-aspirated V8 6208cc engine with 457 HP (336 kW) whereas the new C63 makes use of a smaller twin-turbocharged V8 4.0-liter rated at 476 HP (350 kW). While the horsepower figure gap isn't significant, adding the twin turbos has bumped torque by 100 Nm (74 lb-ft) to 700 Nm (516 lb-ft).
An all-new C63 AMG Coupe will probably be introduced in the second half of next year, following the launch of the regular C-Class Coupe. Mercedes-Benz is also planning a C-Class Convertible which will also get the AMG treatment. It is believed both the coupe and the soft top cabrio C-Class models will receive a slightly more individual design compared to their more practical cousins.

Newer Mercedes cars looks very nice and if new C COupe will look like small S Coupe, it will look stunning IMO. F32 is very nice car, but IMO improvement isn't as big as it was between E60 and F10. Regular hand brake, regular bulbs in tail lights etc. gives me impressium that it is technically very similar to E92 but with better and newer design.
