Car News's video: 2019 Mercedes-AMG C 63 First Drive Review Car News

2019 Mercedes-AMG C 63 First Drive Review, Car News. The C 63's twin-turbo V8 fires up with a trademark thunderclap of revs and settles down to an angry-sounding burble. It's barely 15 minutes since my feet touched German soil, and my checklist of national stereotypes is basically an oompah band from complete. The radio has been pre-tuned to a local soft-rock station and, as I pull out of the airport parking lot, Bryan Adams and Tina Turner are just getting into their stride on their '80s anthem "It's Only Love." And before they've even reached the guitar solo, I'm on the Autobahn with an indicated 170 mph on the speedo. Suffice to say, my mood is high as I head for Bilster Berg driver resort and the opportunity to fully explore the changes made to this updated C 63. In the metal and on paper, these are seemingly minor. The 2019 Mercedes-AMG C 63 S Coupe to which I've been assigned has gained the vertically slatted "Panamericana" grille seen on the GT and other recent 63-series AMGs, a coat of matte black paint and an optional AMG Aerodynamics Package. It's absolutely menacing. And if that doesn't do the trick, the thunder coming out of those quad exhausts gets the message across loud and clear. Has anyone else made such a success of translating the classic, big cube V8 sound into the turbocharged age? Tina Turner has a set of lungs on her, but even she's struggling to make herself heard over this. 2019 Mercedes-AMG C 63 First Drive Review | Car News
