Scoop Shot: C63 AMG Coupe Black Series from Mercedes-Benz

This latest version of Skunk Works by Mercedes-Benz AMG has been spied while it’s undergoing testing in its home country Germany. The C63 AMG Coupe Black Series is seen as one mean machine. With a 6.2 liter engine and modified to huff 510 horsepower it is undoubtedly powerful.

The design looks meaner than that of the normal silvery AMG renditions, the dark color is so masculine, much like saying “STAY AWAY!” even to the police. The sound of this vehicle is expected to be really loud as the Black Series models are not the silent-type. It is said to have a lot of carbon fiber in it, making it easier for the suspension. So, with this model, you’re expected to have a lifetime supply of adrenaline rush and masculine ego to boot.

Our sources say that the saloon version of his C63 AMG Coupe Black Series will be developed real soon. Let’s all stay tune.
