Not doubting the capabilities of a chipped turbo six that can be made really fast for little money but both engines give a very different experience.

At the same time, people who want to do an 'm3 conversion' exterior wise with grills and all wouldn't exactly be looking into getting the m sport bumpers either.

hey, i get that, but there is always a handful of people who do do that kind of thing. if everybody in the world tastefully modded their cars it would be a better place but i can totally imagine one guy being like "oh yea, i got the amg package, ive tuned it exactly like an amg but didnt want to get the amg cus of ______ but its basically a c63 amg"

damn, shoulda named this thread "2015 c63 amg" without the exterior part lol anywho Quote:
Originally Posted by autoblog Skipping the 5.5-litre twin-turbo V8 that has gone on to power other AMG models, the next C63 AMG is still expected to introduce a new 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 producing between 450 and 500 horsepower. It'll also reportedly keep the same seven-speed automatic transmission (instead of switching to the new nine-speed), but the jury's still out on whether it'll come with rear- or all-wheel drive (or offer buyers the choice). The downsized V8 – codenamed M177 – is then expected to find its way into other models, but the C-Class will be the first to get it when it arrives before the end of the new year ahead. | no more massive NA v8

For safe bet on what the new AMG C Class will look like, I would take a look at the CLA AMG for references. I think those photos are fairly close, but with the exception of likely much more aggressive wheels and I'm guessing some sort of large AMG badging on the side.
I am guessing where you will see the most differences will be the interior trim and seats.

I think the e class coupe with the HUGE front intakes is a step up from the non facelifted version. |
