Hardcore, special edition Mercedes C63 AMG revealed at Goodwood

Mercedes has launched a 513bhp, 480lb ft special edition version of the C63 AMG.

Only 20 examples of the new Mercedes C63 DR520 will be produced, and they will only be available through Mercedes-Benz World at a cost of £62,430 for the saloon and £63,680 for the estate. That's just over £10,000 more than the standard C63 models.

The DR520 - named for its dyno-rated power output - is the first car produced by MB World’s Specialist Products division, using parts developed at the Brookland’s-based facility as well as Brabus-developed parts.

AMG’s performance pack is fitted as standard and the engine gets upgrades in the form of forged pistons, revised crankshaft and new connecting rods.

The result is a 0-62mph time of 4.1seconds for the saloon (4.2 for the estate) – an improvement of 0.4sec. The DR250 is available only in either matt black or matt white.214101025314948179x39

The picture was changed; initially it was a black E-class estate.
