In its stock guise, the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG (W204) has around 457 HP to play around with and some 600 Nm (442 lb-ft) of torque to push its rear axle around. You shouldn’t be surprised to learn that the one in our video here is tuned by some ambitious company therefore.
However, that’s not the only surprise we’re talking about with our mysterious title. Oh no, this little Merc has a couple more aces up its sleeve to take down more powerful rivals.
The car was tuned by the guys from Weistec Engineering and, thanks to their Stage 2 kit, it now has no less than 670 horses coming from the 6.2-liter V8 under the bonnet.
Thanks to a twin-screw compressor, the car now also has 662 lb-ft (897 Nm) of torque for the rear axle, all thanks to the specialized Mercedes-Benz tuner. All of that also comes with a price and it’s not cheap at $13,000. Of course, you also get all the other parts you need for your engine not to blow up like new air filters, oil cooler, ice tank and a ROW air box set.
Is it worth the money?
Well, if you want to know for sure if it’s worth the $13,000 money, all you have to do is watch the video below, where such an C63 takes down a 700 HP Corvette Z06 C6, a 700 HP BMW M5 done by Noelle and a Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG with 830 HP. Considering the latter was tuned by Gorilla Racing, that’s the least surprising result of them all.
However, the other two races have rather surprising results. That’s because in both of them, the Merc’s rivals first seem to pull away from it only to be defeated on the longer stretch. For example, the BMW wins the quarter mile run but ends up crossing the finish line second.
