AMG Australia has decided it wants to make its own version of the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series, so it took one of these muscular coupes and slapped a set of Gloss Black HRE P44SC wheels.
This usually insane car has dropped most of its silly go-faster carbon-fiber aero bits and now plays the sleeper game. However, you only have to explore the right pedal, and you will find 550 rampaging stallions escaping from the exhaust.

It’s supposed to be a stripped-out, track-focused machine, but Mercedes has left all the modern luxury toys and a relaxed automatic gearbox. However, it loves to smoke rubber and burn gasoline more than most cars in its class.


The C63 AMG Coupe Black Series is what happens when a DTM race car suddenly decided to take to the streets. In this age of turbochargers, it stands for purity, adopting one of the most cheerful 6.3-liter V8 engines you will ever come across.

The Black Series is like a Mercedes version of the 911 GT3 RS with the engine where it should be and tires that won't last for too long. Yours for around $110,000, this drift machine is too silly not to get noticed.

Unlike the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, this isn't a stripped out car. Yes, a few features have been removed, but you still have heated leather seats, navigation and back seats. If you like Alcantara, you are going to love this interior.

Unlike the BMW M3 or many other modern sportscars, there aren't that many things you can set yourself. But the brake and steering feel are perfect just the way they are.

The front and rear shocks are bigger, the suspension is lower, the brakes are huge and the 7-speed gearbox is tuned. You know what? We need to stop talking about it and let you guys enjoy the photos.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
