When the Germans and Japanese get together, the end result usually has something to do with craftsmanship and this special edition Mercedes Benz is no exception. It’s called the C63 AMG Performance Studio Edition and is getting plenty of attention in the Japanese market, for which it has been specially created.
The big news is that the car really does get extra performance, as the 6.2-liter V8 has been boosted from the
usual 451 hp (457 ps) to a massively respectful 480 hp (487 ps).

The custom Merc’ also gets cosmetic tweaks in the form of a new set of multi-spoke 19-inch alloy wheels finished in black with a red lip, as well as a matte paint finish for the body.

Inside, red nappa leather with red stitching contrasts with the black on the other interior elements on this Japanese special edition.

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.
