As if AMG models need to be enhanced, Mercedes-Benz asserts that the new C63 AMG sedan has better performance and fuel economy, while featuring the AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT7-speed sports transmission and its controlled efficiency' mode. This transmission has won awards and is paired with a new power steering pump designed to cut fuel use by at least 10 percent.
Philadelphia used Mercedes-Benz buyers will like the feel of the 6.3-liter V8 engine, which can be upped from 451 horsepower to 481 horsepower when the AMG Development Package is added. Not only is there more power, but a more comfortable ride along with it. The suspension has been fine-tuned to offer a smoother ride.
Driver assistance systems and improved telematics also make this a safer ride for Mercedes South Jersey buyers, who will be able to get the 2012 C63 AMG this fall. The look has changed a bit as well with a new radiator grille featuring the Mercedes star and a transverse louvre. A new AMG apron is set a bit lower and highlighted with glossy black finish.
Another new feature, clear-lends headlights, gives this AMG sedan a unique attitude and it becomes even more pronounced when added to the optional Lighting Package with bi-xenon headlights. Your dealer of Philadelphia used Mercedes-Benz models will be sure to point out the wide front fenders on this model and the twin-spoke AMG light-alloy wheels.
The rear has a few changes as well. A new AMG apron with a hard-to-miss black diffuser insert and three fins which are quite distinctive complete the sporty look. Of course buyers will find all the latest technology and safety features expected from Mercedes-Benz.
The amazing AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT7-speed sports transmission is very flexible and offers four driving modes and a RACE START function. The shifts are smooth in every driving situation and the gear changes are also extremely quick.
Your Mercedes South Jersey dealer is impressed with the way Mercedes-Benz has kept its place as the top performing model in its segment going from zero to 60 mph in only 4.4 seconds and reaching a top, though electronically regulated, speed of 155 mph.
When the AMG Development Package is added the driver has access to 481 horsepower and can reach 60 mph in just 4.3 seconds. Now whether that tenth of a second will really make a difference to the average driver remains to be seen, but it still sounds cool.
The components in this AMG model are 6.6 pounds lighter than the standard version. It may sound like a small difference, but in the high performance arena, every ounce counts. Mercedes-Benz has certainly made this C63 AMG model count and customers will notice the quality when they visit the showroom.
