Overview

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz AMG C 63 S Sedan makes for an excellent contender in the compact sedan. With standalone trim on offer, the Mercedes-Benz AMG C 63 S has a base MSRP of $71,900. It competes directly with the BMW M3 Sedan and the Volvo S60 Polestar Sedan. Only a 4.0L Twin-Turbo V8 engine is offered, mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission. Together, they produce 503 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 3.9 seconds, the AMG C 63 S maintains a combined fuel economy of 20 MPG. Mercedes-Benz offers the AMG C 63 S in 10 stunning colors, with the Steel Grey Metallic being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

The AMG C 63 S Sedan trim comes in a single, very well appointed trim level that comes with the best of everything. Notable features include 18-inch wheels, high-performance tires, an adaptive sport-tuned suspension, upgraded brakes, sport seats, more aggressive styling and different interior trim.
