2011 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Affalterbach Edition

 

The Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG is an absolutely stunning piece of machinery. We recently had a chance to steer a C63 fitted with the P31 Development Package around the greater Detroit area, and it now looks like our friends to the north are getting a special edition of Merc's AMG atom bomb all for themselves.

Exclusive to Canada, and limited to just 30 units, Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Affalterbach Edition was developed in the AMG Performance Center in Affalterbach, Germany.

Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Affalterbach Edition is finished in distinctive designo MAGNO Allanite gray paint, and its appearance is distinguished by unique AMG high-performance brakes with red calipers, 19 “AMG
multi-spoke alloy wheels in black, carbon fiber mirrors and a rear spoiler.

Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Affalterbach Edition is powered by hand-built, 6.2 L V8 engine, which delivers 481 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque, which propels it from 0 to 100 km / h in just 4.4 seconds.



Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Affalterbach Edition has an extensive list of standard equipment and also the characteristics of each element of the C63 AMG Premium Package, which includes a rear view camera, Parktronic, COMAND APS with HDD navigation and DVD Changer, multi interface Media, sunshade for rear window, Harman / Kardon ® LOGIC7 surround sound system and KEYLESS-GO. In addition, the Affalterbach Edition is equipped with the AMG Performance Package, which adds 30 additional horses, removes the speed limiter and adds a limited slip differential.

Available in spring 2011, Mercedes-Benz C63 Affalterbach Edition will retail from $ 81,500.

 

Dubbed the Affalterbach Edition (it's named after the German town in which AMG's skunkworks reside), this C63 wears a unique Magno Allanite Grey paint that is accented with red brake calipers, 19-inch black alloy wheels, carbon fiber mirror shells and a subtle lip spoiler. No tweaks have been made to the C63's powertrain, but the Affalterbach edition comes standard with the normally optional AMG Performance Package, meaning there's 481 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque on tap. Sprints to 62 miles per hour will be accomplished in a tidy 4.4 seconds.

Inside, the Affalterbach treatment includes things like AMG sport seats wrapped in Nappa leather, red contrast stitching, carbon fiber trim, and special edition logos placed throughout the cabin. Only 30 units will be sold in the Great White North, starting from $81,500 Canadian when it goes on sale in the spring. Follow the jump for Mercedes-Benz's official release.
