Overview

The 2021 Mercedes-AMG C 63 S Sedan makes for an excellent contender in the mid-size luxury performance sedan class. With a single standalone trim on offer, the Mercedes-Benz AMG C 63 S Sedan has a base MSRP of $77,250, competing directly with the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio, the Audi RS 5, and the BMW M3. Only a 4.0L turbocharged V8 engine is offered, mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission. Together, they produce 503 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 3.7 seconds, the AMG C 63 S Sedan maintains a combined fuel economy of 21 MPG. Mercedes offers the AMG C 63 S Sedan in 7 stunning colors, with the Brilliant Blue being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz AMG C 63 S Sedan is the best all-round performer in this segment. The Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio has cramped rear seats and questionable reliability. The BMW M3 despite being really aggressive, has a front-end design that not everyone would like and its steering feedback isn’t fully satisfying. The Audi RS 5 is a capable car and is also 0.1 seconds faster than the Merc on a straight line. But it’s not as composed or thrilling to drive as the Mercedes. Overall, the Mercedes-Benz AMG C 63 S Sedan is the car that would satisfy an owner both in terms of luxury and performance in this segment and it is the one you should buy.
