Oh Yes, There's A Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Wagon

Ah, the joys of forbidden fruit. Shortly after the leaked photos of the new C63 AMG were revealed, the official pics and specs were released – along with a tasty two-box treat.

The wagon bodystyle will, of course, not be offered in America. All-wheel drive doesn’t appear to be in the cards either, unlike recent AMG offerings. Unlike the BMW M3, the C63 will retain its V8 configuration, though no manual gearbox will be offered.

    Caramba! Mercedes AMGs, BMW M cars are the only reason I buy lottery tickets. If I ever hit the jackpot, I'd want that AWD Ferrari wagon with the V12 just to thumb my nose at the Ferraristas. But a tenth place payout and a C63 would be just fine. No luck in 40 years of trying. But the occasional daydream is worth a coupla bucks every now and then..

      You and me both wmba. There's an older lady who drives a black FF around downtown Toronto. I am really hoping that she'll notice the dashing young auto journalist in the grey Miata. A longer shot than your lottery ticket but a man can dream...

    Though this Merc is tasty, I'd still rather a RS6 Avant.

  • ToolGuy I was challenged by Tim's incisive opinion, but thankfully Jeff's multiple vanilla truisms have set me straight. Or something. 😉
  • ChristianWimmer The body kit modifications ruined it for me.
  • ToolGuy "I have my stance -- I won't prejudice the commentariat by sharing it."• Like Tim, I have my opinion and it is perfect and above reproach (as long as I keep it to myself). I would hate to share it with the world and risk having someone critique it. LOL.
  • SCE to AUX Sure, give them everything they want, and more. Let them decide how long they keep their jobs and their plant, until both go away.
  • SCE to AUX Range only matters if you need more of it - just like towing capacity in trucks.I have a short-range EV and still manage to put 1000 miles/month on it, because the car is perfectly suited to my use case.There is no such thing as one-size-fits all with vehicles.
