A car like no other, the Mercedes C63 AMG with all it’s unadulterated power will be sorely missed.

The guys over at Drive put together a video wishing the AMG model a fond farewell.

For the power hungry among you, Mercedes has released pricing details of their new C63 AMG Edition 507 range.  Pricing for the 2014 C63 AMG Edition 507 sedan will begin at $70,000 (along with a $925 delivery charge), and the C63 Edition 507 coupe is priced slightly higher at $72,500 (with the additional $925 as well).

If you’re unfamiliar with the C63 AMG Edition 507, it replaces what was the optional AMG Development Package for both the coupe and sedan. What you get is more power, with output of the AMG 6.3 liter V8 engine being pushed to 507 hp with 450 lb.-ft. of torque (up 56 horsepower over the standard models).  The result:  speed, and lots of it.  Both the C63 AMG Edition 507 coupe and sedan can now hit 60 mph in a mere 4.1 seconds, bettering the standard C63 model by three-tenths of a second (and the former optional AMG Development Package by two tenths of a second). And as an added bonus, top speed has been electronically raised to 174 mph (up from the standard 155 mph), ensuring even more exhilarating track runs on the weekend.

Mercedes C63 AMG Edition 507 Front and Side View

Speaking about the C63 AMG Edition 507, Ola Källenius, Chairman of the Board of Management of Mercedes-AMG GmbH, had this to say: “The C63 AMG with the classic AMG 6.3-liter high-revving V8 naturally aspirated engine is one of the most popular AMG high-performance cars in the world. With the new C 63 AMG Edition 507, we are offering our loyal customers an attractive model variant which boasts even higher performance and at the same time is visually exciting.”

Of course, incredible performance is nothing new to Mercedes, as many of the C63 AMG Edition 507’s components are carried over from the SLS AMG.  Key shared components include the eight-cylinder naturally aspirated engine’s forged pistons, connecting rods and a lightweight crankshaft. Also standard on the C63 Edition 507 is the AMG high-performance compound braking system with  super sexy red brake calipers.

Mercedes C63 AMG Edition 507 Interior Overview

Design wise, the C63 AMG Edition 507 notes numerous distinctive design cues, starting with the hood.  First made famous on the C63 AMG Coupe Black Series, the Edition 507’s aluminum hood notes two openings to help expel engine heat. On the ground, newly designed AMG light-alloy forged wheels (available in titanium grey or matte black) with 235/35 R 19 front tires and 255/30 R 19 rear tires further set the Edition 507 apart from its siblings.  And lastly, an AMG sports stripe applique in matte graphite grey is featured above the rocker panels, adding another sporty touch.

Mercedes C 63 AMG “Edition 507” featuring technology transfer from the SLS AMG

The C 63 AMG models are set to become an even more dynamic proposition: in exclusive “Edition 507” guise, the Saloon, Estate and Coupé are equipped with an uprated AMG 6.3-litre V8 engine. The 37 kW (50 hp) boost to 373 kW (507 hp) combined with maximum torque of 610 Nm derives from the transfer of technology from the SLS AMG, with the forged pistons, connecting rods and lightweight crankshaft adopted from the super sports car’s eight-cylinder naturally aspirated engine. An AMG high-performance composite brake system with red callipers comes as standard. The C 63 AMG “Edition 507” is designed to appeal to keen sports drivers who will appreciate the high-calibre technology and a wealth of exclusive design details and appointments.

The C 63 AMG “Edition 507” produces 373 kW (507 hp), and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.2 seconds in Saloon or Coupé version and in 4.3 seconds in the Estate. It therefore betters the 336 kW (457 hp) base model by two tenths of a second. The top speed of all body styles is 280 km/h (electronically limited) as the “Edition 507” models are fitted with the AMG Driver’s package as standard. In addition to the higher top speed limit, the package also includes a voucher for a driver training course at the AMG Driving Academy. The market launch for the C 63 AMG “Edition 507” gets underway in June 2013.

Mercedes-Benz unveiled the more powerful, more aggressive C63 AMG model dubbed the “Edition 507” back in February, and at your request, we are taking another look at the insanely powerful AMG model. The output of the AMG 6.3 liter V8 engine has been increased by 56 hp, bringing the output to 507 hp with 450 lb.-ft. of torque.  Much of the technology from the SLS AMG has been carried over to the 2014 C63 AMG “Edition 507” including: the eight-cylinder naturally aspirated engine features forged pistons, connecting rods and a lightweight crankshaft as seen on the super sports car. An AMG high-performance compound constuction braking system with red brake calipers is fitted as standard.

The C63 AMG “Edition 507” will be on show in Geneva and be available in the Summer of 2013.

The C63 AMG “Edition 507” comes in both a coupe and sedan and produces 507 hp pushing it 0-60 in 4.1 seconds. This new model outperforms the existing 451 hp C63 model by three-tenths of a second, and the variants with the AMG Development Package which produce 481 hp by two-tenths of a second. In addition to an increase in top speed to 174 mph, the “Edition 507” also includes a voucher for a driver training session at the AMG Driving Academy.

According to Ola Källenius, Chairman of the Board of Management of Mercedes-AMG GmbH: “The C 63 AMG with the classic AMG 6.3-litre high-revving V8 naturally aspirated engine is one of the most popular AMG high-performance cars in the world. With the new C 63 AMG “Edition 507″, we are offering our loyal customers an attractive model variant which boasts even higher performance and at the same time is visually exciting.”

Preliminary Technical Data:

2014 Mercedes C63 AMG Edition 507

C63 AMG “Edition 507” featuring technology from the SLS AMG

The increase in power output to 507 hp at 6800 rpm comes courtesy of the modified inner workings of the AMG 6.3-liter V8 engine. The forged pistons adopted from the SLS AMG, together with new connecting rods and a lightweight crankshaft, translate into a weight saving of 6.6 lbs. The reduction of rotational mass inertia improves the agility of the eight-cylinder M156 naturally aspirated engine. The maximum torque has also increased by 7 lb.-ft., jumping from 443 lb.-ft. to 450 lb.-ft. at 5200 rpm. The titanium grey-painted variable intake manifold is a characteristic feature of the uprated V8 engine. A new engine control system rounds off the series of implemented powertrain measures.

The exterior of the C63 AMG “Edition 507” is characterized by exclusive new design features. Most notable of the features is the hood – it originates from the C63 AMG Coupe Black Series. Two openings in the distinctive aluminium hood help with expelling engine heat. Newly designed AMG light-alloy forged wheels with 235/35 R 19 front tires and 255/30 R 19 rear tires are another exclusive feature of the “Edition 507”. The AMG light-alloy wheels are produced using lightweight forging technology and are available in two variants: titanium grey with a high-sheen finish, or matte black with highsheen rim flanges. An AMG sports stripe applique in matte graphite grey have been located above the rocker panels and are yet another new feature of the exterior.

The spoiler lip on the trunk lid, the exterior mirror housings as well as the
surrounds on the radiator grille and daytime running lights are all finished in high-gloss black. Available as an option for the C63 AMG “Edition 507” is an exclusive designo magno platinum matte finish paint.

AMG high-performance braking system featuring compound technology

As standard, the C63 AMG “Edition 507” comes with an even more powerful AMG high-performance braking system featuring compound construction technology. The front axle makes use of compound brake discs measuring 14.2 in. x 1.4 in. The advantages of the compound design include higher fatigue strength and lower warping characteristics. In addition, compound construction discs are lighter in weight and the reduced unsprung masses improve the response of the spring/damping elements.

With compound construction, the brake discs are connected to an aluminium bowl via eight cast bracket arms. The brake discs are ventilated and perforated all around and are decelerated by means of 6-piston aluminium fixed calipers on the front axle and 4-piston fixed calipers on the rear axle. The brake callipers are painted red as standard fitment.

“Edition 507” interior: even more dynamic and exclusive

The sporty yet functional interior of the C63 AMG is even more dynamic and exclusive in the case of the “Edition 507”. Three different equipment and options are available to choose from: porcelain designo leather/DINAMICA, black designo leather/DINAMICA and black designo leather. In the case of the designo leather/DINAMICA upholstery, light-colored contrast stitching makes for an attractive highlight. The AMG Performance steering wheel in Alcantara® with light-colored contrasting stitching has a 12-o’clock marking. The gear selector lever of the AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission is finished in DINAMICA and features an AMG badge. The steering wheel and gear selector lever gaiter also have light-colored contrast stitching.

In the AMG instrument cluster, red applications to the dials serve to visually differentiate this variant from the other C63 AMG models. The trim is done in high-gloss black piano lacquer and the “Edition 507” badge on the trim on the front passenger side round off the high-quality, exclusive interior.
