Overview

The Mercedes-Benz AMG C63 represents the last of the V8-powered super coupés glory days and remains a particular highlight of that now sorely lamented era. With the latest C63 models now featuring hybrid four-cylinder engines, gone are the heady years of the revered and established AMG formula of a hand-built 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8, rear-wheel drive and sleek two-door bodywork, making these late eight-cylinder coupes particularly relevant to enthusiasts seeking the traditional and ever venerable C63 configuration.

This isn't any old C63 though, far from it. What we have here is an extensively factory-specified, low owner, low mileage Mercedes-Benz AMG C63 S Night Edition Coupe. Presenting beautifully in its Obsidian Black Metallic over two-tone Red Pepper and Black Nappa leather interior colourway the car's inherent qualities reach considerably further than the Night Edition’s cosmetic treatment. Myriad performance features are also present, including the AMG Driver’s Package, AMG Track Pace, switchable AMG Performance exhaust, electronic rear limited-slip differential, AMG Ride Control sports suspension, AMG Dynamic Select driving modes and AMG Performance seats. And then there's the top-tier Premium Plus package, too, adding high-end luxury, advanced technology, and superior comfort features to an already incredibly impressive performance-focussed example.

Sourced at a time when new V8 C63 S Coupe availability had become extremely restricted the vendor deliberately sought one of the final-generation models – a process supported by the included Mercedes-Benz correspondence documents – and is only now selling due to relocating abroad and therefore reducing their UK car collection.

Completely factory standard and with a well documented servicing and maintenance record, as well as extensive original paperwork, this Mercedes-Benz AMG C63 S Night Edition Coupe has clearly been cherished throughout its life and presents currently as a shining example of one of the last, and indeed greatest, V8-equipped Mercedes-Benz coupés ever made, making it inherently more desirable than an earlier, standard example. The highlighted spec list can be found below but suffice to say this is one serious bit of kit supported by substantial documentation and an interesting provenance.
