"A turbo inline six? Huh?"



Only kidding!

In all seriousness, I'm very eager to drive the F80. It won't replace the C63 (going to cling to the M156 for a while) but it could land beside it. Will have to drive the W205 C63 as well.

Love both the interior and exterior styling of the F80 (except for the rear bumper). I hope the impressions about the steering and sound are true.

I think it'll be close.

Last C63 I saw tested hit 60 in 3.8 and the 1/4 mile in 12.2 (although I know plenty of guys in the high 11s stock). Hoping to get out to the strip here soon now that the weather is clearing up.

The front seats look like they extend like the E9X seats. I thought the new seats didn't do this? Is this for the vert only?

"Hm. This doesn't look like a Mercedes S63, why did the designers make it look so much like a BMW?"

With the results of Formula One this season, I don't think AMG is too worried about M these days. I think it'll be quite the opposite until M gets back in the game.

seriously, i don't think he's worried about what ///M division is doing. of course, he is going to check out his main competition but both AMG and ///M divisions have mutual respect for one another. different strokes for different folks is all

Wonder if they have to pay MSRP too or wait it out until they get invoice pricing.

Turbo V8 C63 AMG will have a killer sound and with AWD you can be sure it should be a pretty impressive 0-60. AMG had the issue of having a monster engine but they couldn't get the traction to use all that power. AWD and a monster torque from a V8 turbo should make it approach GTR league performance. I am sure it will give the M4 a decent competition. Regardless we win no matter what. Also bring the RS5 and let them compete for our cash!!!!

The seats in the vert a clearly different from the ones in the sedan and coupe, they have that hot air blower for the neck and shoulders. The coupe and sedan I saw at the Montreal car show did not have the lap extension. So, yes, if it is extendable, it would be a vert only feature.
