Official: 2012 C63 AMG Coupe


I don't like the coupé, doesn't differ enough from the sedan to make it special, well apart for that fkd up greenhouse. Rims look awful too and as Sunny said the rearwheels look tiny. I'd have the sedan over this.
 
The Million Dollar Question: M3 Killer? All thought the RS5 Coupé would be one, but it failed. Will the C63 AMG Coupé succeed?

About the car itsself, it really doesn't look good. A5/S5/RS5 is much better, also is the 3 Series/M3. E Coupé is a beauty, C Coupé is just not OK. Even CLC looked better.

You lost all credibility after the bolded. :eusa_thin
 
It's an attractive car even if it's plagued with a slighty awkard side profile,but I still preferr the wagon variant out of the bunch. Those rims are awfull btw.
 
The front is OK, the standard AMG ultra mean aggressive look, which I am not particularly a fan of. The shape, is just bad. I think the standard C-coupe gets away with it a little bit because it doesn't look so sporty, you can kind of assume a more elegant theme so that you can almost accept its weird greenhouse and shape and side windows shape copied from some Honda, but with this package, with all the sportiness, this all looks weird. The front doesn't match the rear, and the rear doesn't match the shape, and the rear lights doesn't even tell you this is supposed to be a coupe. Why BMW made its 3coupe different all the time, there is a reason, you simply cannot just remove two doors from the sedan and call it a coupe, the trunk doesn't match, everything doesn't match up. Four door please.
 
No, IMO opinion the CLC had better proportions. It looked like the 3 Series Compact (E46). As said, you can't take away two doors and call it a coupé, but you can add two doors and call it a 4-door coupé.

I disagree.
 
Well..
I will be needing a car in the next 12 months and I have narrowed my choice down to this and the RS5. Two stunning cars.

If I can get the C63 with performance package at a price below the RS5 I will be leaning towards it.

Don't want those rims however... Hope that is not the only option for the performance package.
 
First, I would love to see this car in some spey gray metallic with this interior:



Second, do we have an M3 killer here?
 
It looks nice, but because of Sunny I can't unsee the tiny backwheels in relation to the body :( Damn ;)

You sound foolish here because the E30, E36, E46 were identical to their coupe counterparts with the exception of having a different amount of doors.
 
I HATE these aftermarket looking wheels. They're totally inappropriate on a MB. But it's clear evidence Mercedes is trying to appeal to the boy racers who would otherwise be driving M3's.

Funny you mention that because I was thinking the same thing.

I think the black wheels take away form this car and it would POP out even more with some nice AMG aluminum wheels.

I believe these black-finish wheels are part of the performance package. The standard C63 should have these wheels.
