Four Doors of Doom! the 2010 Mercedes C63 AMG

The Car that Will Judge All Other Sedans

Seth Joyner
The 2010 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG is one mean looking machine; it's possibly the sharpest looking four door sedan on the market. From the outside you can blatantly tell that the C63 AMG is built for business with its smooth shark-like European sport lines. Observing the C63 AMG from a forward perspective you can plainly see the mouth of the great white shark with a sharp looking front fascia with twin aerodynamic gill slits carved into the sides of the bumper. Double raised mini cowls make for a mean looking hood, no doubt needed to cool a hot engine. The badges on the fenders say it all, 63 AMG! Below the fenders you'll notice the seemingly massive 18 inch five star aluminum AMG wheels and behind that you'll take acknowledgement to the huge 14.2 inch cross-drilled brake rotors and AMG etched six piston calipers. Moving on down the C63 AMG you should begin to take note of the low slung stance and minimal fender gap, as you move to the rear you can see the 13 inch cross drilled rotors with a four piston calipers. As we move to the back of the sedan you will observe the casual smooth rear bumper, beneath it you will see a glimpse of double twin exhaust pipes on either side of this powerful C63 AMG.

The 2010 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG is a four door sedan in which all others should be judged. When taking to the road the C63 AMG puts all other business sedans to shame and has set its eyes on BMW's M3. The C63 AMG is no regular C-class, it's C-class on illegal steroids. The C63 is a mighty competitor when it comes to power output, generating 457 horsepower and 443ftlbs of torque from its robust 6.2 liter V8. The C63 AMG has an equally impressive torque curve from 2000 to 6250 rpm, always leaving the driver with more than 360ftlbs of torque at all times to muster up those steep hills or pass other cars quickly on the interstate. The C63 AMG is a sport business sedan in every sense of the word, sorry no manual shift options here. The C63 AMG's V8 engine is mated to a seven speed dual clutch semi-automatic, this allows drivers to either drive casually or get sporty by shifting themselves. Shifting is done via paddles on the beautifully sculpted leather wrapped Mercedes steering wheel, which by the way; has a pop up navigation display just to your right. Taking the C63 AMG to the drag strip it really performs, rocking from zero to 60 mph in only 4.3 seconds; not too shabby considering the C63 AMG weighs 4,000 lbs. The C63 for 2010 is no longer governed at 155mph, on the open interstate it can top out right at a very impressive 183 mph. So, how much will the 2010 C63 AMG cost you? Around $59,000; not bad for 450 horsepower, four doors for your friends, and a 0 to 60 mph time of 4.3 seconds.
