Take a ride in the AMG C63S. A super sedan with a chassis as strong as its power.

AMG C63S
Reviews & Test Rides

When the car is set to Sport or Sport Plus, the characteristics are more pronounced, the handling is more precise, and the engine sound is brawnier. Blipping becomes loud and a bobbing backfire sound can be heard from time to time.

C63S Muffler

The suspension is tighter, the handling more precise, and the sense of displacement is all the more reduced. That said, the handling is a bit different from that of other manufacturers' sports cars; it has a slightly understeer, Mercedes-like feel. It is not the same as sharp and razor-sharp turning.

As is the case with other MercedesThe first priority is stability, and on top of that, we are trying to realize the fun of driving.It feels like it. I didn't try race mode this time, but if I put it in race mode or change the traction control settings, it might feel sharper.

The engine has a very good torque feel. We didn't accelerate too deeply, but the owner saidIt is said that even during normal acceleration, the tires try to spin out of alignment if you step on them too deeply.This is because the vehicle body is relatively compact andfrequency (esp. of waveforms)This is probably why it is so much more so. Also, given the nature of the car, I believe that the manufacturer dares to give it that kind of flavor in order to make it more enjoyable.

The engine sound, in terms of volume, is not bombastic, but it is quite heroic. Low to medium RPMs areV8The sound is very typical, and the high rpm turns into a surprisingly grainy and pleasant sound. Personally, I like this high-rpm sound.

However, according to the owner, he is not very satisfied with the sound.718BoxsterGTSThe sound is quiet and insufficient when compared to the pleasant sound at the time of opening.He said.

Then I rode the Panamera.

This time, after driving the C63S, I drove home in our Panamera Turbo, and immediately afterwards, I compared the ride.The Panamera is still more luxurious.This is especially true in terms of ride comfort.The Panamera's legs, which I thought were stiff, are extremely flexible.Feelings.

On the other hand, the Panamera has less of a sense of feeling the four corners of the body, or rather, a sense that the driver can grasp every corner of the body. It turns well on curves, butC63S is easier to figure out what condition the body is in.I felt that I had a good chance to make a good impression.

I wonder if the C63S was designed with an emphasis on this lumpy feel so that the body condition can be easily grasped, considering the fact that the C63S can power-slide that compact body with overwhelming torque on the race circuit, etc.

Panamera and C63S

If I had to sum up the C63S in one word, I would say, "naughty MercedesThe AMG S63 is a more clearly oriented car than the S63, even though they are both AMG. The same AMG has a clearer direction than the S63.Sporty and entertainingI wanted a car that was compact, powerful enough to duck the higher end cars with ease, and that would be able to handle the higher end cars. I wanted a compact car with enough power to duck the higher end models with room to spare, andI don't value handling pleasure as much as I would choose a BMW M.I think it is suited to such tastes.

However, the original enjoyment of this car is not to compete for time on a circuit, but to enjoy drifting and sliding with the power of the car. I felt that this car has the body, chassis, and power that anyone can use.

What is your husband's impression of the AMG C63S?

My husband is often given test drives of cars by people he knows, like this one, because of the level of excitement and the way they talk.I guess he liked the car a lot this time.or "I guess it wasn't to my liking.I have some idea of what it means to be a "good" person.

In the case of this AMG C63S, it was indeed a nice car, but when I asked him about it, he said.I think I prefer Mercedes with a more subdued look. But if you like muscle cars like this, this is the car for you.He said.

My husband said that if it was a Mercedes, he would have been able to say at every turn, "I'm not a Mercedes.I want to ride the SL."so I am sure he likes that kind of thing....

But I'm grateful to be able to ride in all kinds of great cars like this. Thank you all!

    Thank you for your comments on the C63SAMG.
    I think that is a targeted assessment. It is truly 'lumpy'. It's like that lump is getting harder and harder as you go up the mode.
    If the accelerator pedal is depressed more than 2/3, the car accelerates while sliding on the rear wheels from there. The torque is too much for the driver to handle.
    It's like turning an axle in a giggle. Actually, I have not yet tried the race mode in earnest. I'm too scared to do it.
    But it can be used as a family car if you drive it with care.
    A wolf in sheep's clothing. But I think his appearance is also a little bit crazy.
    Please try it next time. Oh, and please try 718.

      Thank you very much for allowing us to test drive your precious car.
      And thank you for saying that about my review!

      When you can use it as a family car and also in race mode...
      It is wonderful to enjoy the various expressions.

      I too would be happy to get a ride if you have a chance (sorry I couldn't make it the other day).

      >Please try it next time. Oh, and 718 please.

      We're looking forward to it!

    Nice to meet you, I would like to make a comment.
    How was it compared to the 981 Boxster GTS and the undercarriage hardness of the c63 at comfort?

    I am very interested in both daily and drive use.
    If you have any memories, please let me know.

      Thank you!

      I asked my husband about it.
      "Since it is an extension of the sword and sports car, and the sedan, the genre of the sword is different, so it is difficult to make a general comparison.
      I don't know if I like the supple legs of a sports car or the stiff legs in a sedan. "
      He said.

      Please do!

    Thank you for your confirmation!
    I received your words and have been test-driving.

    I felt that I could understand the words that the genres are different and it is difficult to compare.

    Also, I learned one thing ‍♂️
