Professional Reviews

• “One of our favorite compact Uber-sedans of the modern age returns with a fresh, yet still thoroughly irascible demeanor based off the updated 2012 C-Class. More significantly, though, is that it'll be offered in both "practical" 4-door form or what will certainly be the highly desirable coupe. ” — Road & Track
• “What's baffling about the C63 is its option mix. A limited-slip diff - which really should be standard equipment in a car that pours 443 lb-ft of torque to only two wheels - is a $2,000 option, while a big, dumb panoramic sunroof is compulsory. Worse yet, there's no sunroof delete option. ” — Edmunds.com
• “Its heft and an almost too-generous low-end torque doling, however, would put it at a disadvantage against such ballerinas as the Boss or M3. ” — Motor Trend
• “A 2-ton Benz on a canyon road? If it's a C63 coupe, no problem. ” — Edmunds.com
• “If the firm ride doesn't remind passengers that they are in a special Benz, the high-side seats and wicked exhaust wail will. ” — Car and Driver
