Mercedes-Benz is currently working on the next-generation C63 AMG and the performance C family is expected to switch to a hybrid 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. Some 10 years ago, however, the C63 had a giant 6.2-liter V8 unit under the hood, mated to a seven-speed automatic gearbox. For those of you still missing the golden era of the German V8, here’s a little something for you.
A new video by AutoTopNL takes us to the Autobahn where the team behind the YouTube channel is putting a Mercedes C63 AMG from the W204 generation to its limits. It’s from the wagon body style, which makes it even more desirable for most of the Motor1.com crew. And with its perfect V8 soundtrack and quick gearbox reactions, it’s very close to being the perfect vehicle.
