A range of comprehensive tuning packages for
the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG are on the market. Here’s a look at some of the best.
As one of the tuning community's most popular cars, there are plenty of Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG
aftermarket packages available for those that want to restyle their
rides or give them an added injection of power and pace. AMG's 6.3-liter
V8 is no slouch, mind you, and with 451 horsepower and 443 pound-feet
of torque at its disposal, the high-performance coupe can sprint from
0-60 mph in 4.4 seconds. But there will always be drivers out there
wanting to join the 500-hp club, and that's where tuning firms come in.
Italian tuner Romeo Ferraris is synonymous with tuning packages for Abarth and
Alfa Romeo,
but once turned its hand to the C63 AMG, dubbing the project
WhiteStorm. The exterior has been given a matte white finish, while
other enhancements include a carbon fiber roof and trunk lid lip, black
fog light surrounds, a black grille, black diffuser and a set of 5-spoke
design black AMG alloy wheels. The cabin has been fitted with red
leather seating. Romeo Ferraris also altered the ECU, which, combined
with the sports-tuned exhaust, provides an additional 79 horsepower over
the standard car
HMS Tuning
offers a range of performance packages for C63 AMG, made up of a
modified ECU, sports filter, Y-Pipes with sports catalytics, a
performance valve exhaust system and three supercharger kits, the most
potent of which increases power to 690 hp and 646 lb-ft of torque. The
body kit for the C63 AMG consists of a carbon-fiber rear diffuser, rear
fin, a front bumper in either carbon-fiber or fiberglass with LED
daytime running lights, and rear fender flares. 19-inch bi-colored
5-spoke alloys, brake upgrades and a KW Clubsport Coilover suspension
complete the tuning kit. If you want the entire list of upgrades, it
will cost in the region of €50,000.
German tuning firm Edo Competition took a C63 AMG Wagon, and by adding a
new exhaust system complete with headers and high-flow catalytic
converters, high performance air filters and an ECU revamp, upped output
to 600 hp and 501 lb-ft of torque. Top speed is now measured at over
211 mph thanks to a speed-limiter override. Edo's interior for
the Mercedes C63 AMG Wagon is fully-customizable and can be lavished in
carbon fiber, Alcantara and leather. The exterior features a body wrap
wrap and a set of ridiculously aggressive multi-piece 19-inch wheels.
California-based tuning company Vorsteiner created a body kit for the
German coupe made entirely out of carbon fiber in order to keep the
weight down while adding plenty of style. The kit includes a front
add-on lower spoiler, badgeless front grille and front fender grille
covers, front vent louver covers, side skirts, trunk-lid with integrated
spoiler wing and diffuser. It sits on a set of either 19- or 20-inch
forged aluminum wheels, blacked out for a stunning contrast with its
white exterior finish. Vorsteiner subtly influenced the interior, adding
bespoke floor and trunk mats available in a wide variety of colors. An
optional titanium or stainless sport exhaust system completes the kit.
Wheelsandmore introduced a tuning package dubbed the 5.7 Edition
Mercedes-Benz
C63 AMG adding power and slick styling. Designed to give the coupe a
racing-car feel, it features an adjustable coilover suspension, special
4-in-1 manifolds, sport air filters, stainless-steel exhaust system, and
20-inch blacked-out 6Sporz forged alloys. Total power output has been
measured at 570 hp and 509 lb-ft of torque, creating a new top speed
just shy of 200 mph
