Nikola records mercedes c63 amg : accelerating,driving off,fly by,revving...i record this videos one month ago when 'Mercedes-Benz" had
test driving in Macedonia.here is a review for this car.A 451-hp, 6.2-liter four-cam 32-valve V-8 Vaseline-fit into the small C-class engine bay is a good start. About 8.5 pounds per horsepower make this roughly 3800-pound sedan do mid-four-second warps to 60 mph, says AMG. The seven-speed paddle-operated automatic with full rev-till-it-sputters manual control delivers lightning upshifts and, by means of carefully staging the clutching and declutching of the planetary gearsets, allows crisp throttle blips during downshifts.

And the best proof that AMG's divining rod is indeed pointing in new directions is a suspension comprehensively dialed in by AMG to (finally!) challenge a BMW for turn-in response, body control, and ride livability.

The C63's timing is propitious. Long a home for heavyweight cruise missiles, AMG's tent has generally been avoided by the younger cut-and-thrust crowd typically found in M3s. BMW sold 3841 M3s in 2006 in the U.S., split almost evenly between coupes and convertibles. The C63 hopes to lure about 2000 U.S. customers per year, and it will have to do it against the V-8-powered M3.

Hence, except for the CLK63 Black Series, the C63 is more comprehensively Godzilla'd than previous AMGs. Young guys like to show it when they blow it, and most of the parts numbers forward of the windshield are unique to the C63, including flared steel fenders with fish-gill slots and the bulging aluminum hood.

With its four-inch bores, the V-8 sits two inches closer to the fire wall than the C's base 3.5-liter V-6 to help axle-weight distribution land at 54/46. The V-8 weighs about 80 more pounds than the V-6, so new impact beams manage the changed crash energy, and a stiffened subframe bears the extra mass.

As AMG was committed to new stampings and revised spindles, engineers seized the opportunity to widen the front track by 1.4 inches and tinker with core suspension geometry, lowering the car's roll center and increasing front and rear camber while reducing caster to sharpen the steering (along with a quicker 13.5:1 rack ratio). The struts, although not adjustable as in the Black Series, have been fine-tooth-combed to lubricate their motion and improve structural stiffness.

AMG seems to have unearthed BMW's recipe for ride-and-handling compromises. Spring and shock rates are up but not ride harshness. The C63 has fierce turn response through tactile steering but rolls over chuckholes with muffled impacts, all without resorting to pricey electronic suspension widgets. Also, thank the 18-inch wheels and 40-front and 35-rear rubber that will be standard on U.S.-delivered models for some extra padding (Europe gets 19s and lower-profile tires). Six-piston monoblock front calipers squeezing cast-iron cross-drilled discs—14.2 inches across in front—are viciously effective at arresting speed

For the first time in a Mercedes, the C63 lets the driver fully disable stability control or select a "sport" option that allows some sideways play but steps in late to prevent disaster. We tried all three modes at Paul Ricard and quickly gravitated toward "off" to fully exploit the C63's easy fishtailing ability. Traction is controlled via brake pulsation, but AMG will offer a genuine limited-slip differential in a forthcoming Sport package, along with iron-aluminum-composite disc brakes and an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel.

AMG plans to announce pricing closer to launch, but executives hint that $63,000 is the U.S. goal. BMW had better watch its back, because this time a Benz wants to be in front.
