SPECIAL EDITION MERCEDES-BENZ C 63 AMG EXCLUSIVE TO SA



MERCEDES-BENZ SAYS: A limited number of Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Edition will be available exclusively to South African motorists from January 2010. 

The exterior of the C63 AMG Edition is similar to the standard C63 AMG, however, the Edition 63 boasts unique 19-inch alloy wheels and three special Designo paint colours, Platinum Black, Mystic White and Graphite.

“Locally the C63 AMG enjoys an above average market share and these 63 Limited Edition units will add some exclusivity to the current range,” says Eckart Mayer, Divisional Manager, Mercedes-Benz Cars.

New black designo leather will enhance the interior even further and covers the upper section of the dashboard, the upper door trim and the armrest on the centre console.

The AMG driver’s package is a standard feature on the C63 AMG Edition, and this includes and increased speed limit of up to 280 km/h, upgraded brakes and improved engine cooling. This top-of-the-range C-Class model is powered by an AMG 6.3-litre V8 engine. Developing a peak output of 336kW and a maximum torque of 600Nm, the high-revving, naturally aspirated engine delivers unrivalled figures in this segment. The C63 AMG accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds.

The popular media interface functionality - a universal interface in the glove compartment for mobile audio devices like an iPod® and USB stick also with AUX input – is a standard feature in the C63 AMG Edition.

To easily identify this limited C63 AMG Edition, each of the sixty-three units will be numbered “1 of 63”.  This designation will appear on the gearshift lever in the outline of the map of South Africa.

The recommended retail price of the C63 AMG Limited Edition is R930 000 and comes standard with the MobiloDrive 120 maintenance plan - 120 000 km or 6 years - together with a 2 year full vehicle warranty.
