anyone have any info.....i really like this car and am due for something new

 

i heard it would be around 65ish US.

 

$63-$66k is what I have seen as estimated pricing.

 

I'm going to hijack the thread.. sry

What are the specs on this car?

0-60 0-100 quarter mile
M3 4.2 9.8 12.8@113
C63 3.9 9.2 12.3@116
RS4 4.5 11.3 13.1@108

 

According to AMG it does 0-62 in 4.5 seconds, but 3.9 is the true number?

 

Yes!, Mercedes under rates the C AMG so it doesnt spoil sales on the mid sized E 63 because both of them are tested to get 3.9 seconds so then why should the consumer pay more for a larger sedan/saloon when he can get the same adrenaline rush in a smaller package which is cheaper and newer to the market.

 

i'm pretty sure those who are in the market for an E amg are considering them because they need a people hauler, but with the little go power when needed... so C class shouldnt bother the E class sales...

 

Are these available yet??

 

Not until the spring I believe. European pricing has been anounced and orders are being taken. C63 price is only 4-5% higher than C55 price from what I have seen which should put it in the low 60's.
