This is the new New 2013 Mercedes C63 AMG Coupe
Back in 2008 Mercedes was looking to expand its market to include the younger population and they decided that the best way to do that was to offer a C-Class Coupe alternative. That project led to the birth of the CLC whose success in the market was more lackluster than bedazzled. Now, Mercedes C63 AMG is at it again with a much more simple approach to meeting the needs of the younger generation. This simple - in the best sense of the word - vehicle is the C-Class Coupe, and Mercedes is even taking a stab at an AMG version.
This future model will be called the C63 AMG Coupe and will in fact be a "little brother" of its sedan sibling. Expect to see a similar exterior design, but with the use of design elements from the latest concepts. However, under the hood Mercedes will place a brand new engine producing around 400 HP.
Since the C-Class Coupe is expected to be unveiled in 2011, expect the AMG version to arrive sometime in 2012.
Exterior and Interior
Like with all the other AMG models, the future C63 AMG Coupe will be defined by an aggressive, sporty look. The sports coupe will get a new bonnet with two pronounced power domes, the trademark AMG radiator grille with a central star and two louvers with chrome inserts, a new front apron, an AMG rear apron with its black diffuser insert, and an AMG sports exhaust system with two chrome twin tailpipes. There will also be a new set of 18" light alloy wheels, a ride lowered by around 40 millimeters, sports suspensions, and speed-sensitive AMG sports steering.
