The C63 AMG is aggressive and straight to the point, making use of the V8 6.2 litre already used in the bigger AMGs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513562_901401_4800_3200_07a1417.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-full\" alt=\"513562_901401_4800_3200_07a1417\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513562_901401_4800_3200_07a1417.jpg\"  style=\"float: left;margin: 0px 5px 5px 0px\" \/><\/a><br \/> But, like good German girl, the C 63 AMG respects the hierarchy and offers less power than her elder sisters. Instead of 500 bhp\/507 hp, the atmospheric engine produces 450 bhp\/457 hp at 6800 rpm.  That is still 30 bhp\/30 hp more than the Audi RS4 and Bmw M3. The torque is in the same vein with 442 lb ft\/600 Nm at 6000 rpm.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513560_901395_4800_3200_07a1414.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-full\" alt=\"513560_901395_4800_3200_07a1414\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513560_901395_4800_3200_07a1414.jpg\"  style=\"float: left;margin: 0px 5px 5px 0px\" \/><\/a><br \/> With such an engine, the C63 AMG runs 0-60mph in 4.5s, 0.3s less than its rivals but like them is still limited at 155 mph. The eight-cylinder is coupled with a seven speed automatic gearbox, dubbed AMG Speedshift Plus 7G-Tronic. The gearbox has three driving modes: Sport, Comfort and Manual.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other photos<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513557_901386_7228_5428_07c1573_03.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-full\" alt=\"513557_901386_7228_5428_07c1573_03\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513557_901386_7228_5428_07c1573_03.jpg\"  style=\"float: left;margin: 0px 5px 5px 0px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513559_901392_4800_3200_07a1391.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-full\" alt=\"513559_901392_4800_3200_07a1391\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513559_901392_4800_3200_07a1391.jpg\"  style=\"float: left;margin: 0px 5px 5px 0px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513561_901398_4800_3200_07a1416_2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-full\" alt=\"513561_901398_4800_3200_07a1416_2\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513561_901398_4800_3200_07a1416_2.jpg\"  style=\"float: left;margin: 0px 5px 5px 0px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513564_901407_4288_2848_07c1343_18.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-full\" alt=\"513564_901407_4288_2848_07c1343_18\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.thesocialmedia.com\/petrol-head\/files\/2012\/07\/513564_901407_4288_2848_07c1343_18.jpg\"  style=\"float: left;margin: 0px 5px 5px 0px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here are the first official picture of the C63 AMG and the least you can say is that it is a naughty car!
