Nobody can argue with the fact that the C-Class Coupe is pretty far from the sluggish-looking luxo-barge GT's of Mercedes' past, but while taking a look at its smaller engines available in its model range you wouldn't exactly put it up there with a super sports coupe.
So, what happens when you desire the look of a hungry-for-Porsches C 63 AMG Coupe but you only have a C 250 in your garage? Well, there are two options.
You can either get the M156 6.2-liter V8 swapped instead of your “puny” four-banger, along with upgraded brakes, suspension and transmission, or you could just get the beefier AMG bodykit, a sportier-looking set of rims and a four-exit exhaust system.
That will surely fool those M3 owners into running with the tail between their quad-exhaust system. It's what the following Hong Kong owner did to its four-cylinder C-Class.
We are talking about a Mercedes-Benz C 250 Coupe that's been modified to look like the much angrier C 63 AMG big brother, with a matte paint wrap from Wrap Workz and the deletion of the C 250 badges to top the whole package.
If you don't have a keen eye, the result is pretty confusing and looks pretty good, actually, but we can't help the feeling of “all show no go” about it, for some reason. Check out the result of the build process in the following video and the adjacent photo gallery.
