Hi everybody
This topic might have already been spoken about but as a new member could somebody shed some light on a possible C63 in future.I have read stories about C55 with 405HP in 2005 and a possible C63 in 2006,will it fit in C class engine bay?.What is truth and what is fiction?.
Hopefully there will be another (V8) C55, but I don't think that a 6.3l V12 will fit in the engine bay of a W203, but you never know with those nutcases in stuttgart nowdays, they might find a way like they did with the 500E (W124).
I have read on other sites that the current 5.5litre would be bored and stroked to 6.3l thus still being the same size and weight.The next ML would also have the same treatment as the v12 would not fit in it either.
Figures just took delivery of a c55 and now there are rumors of a c63! [xx(] well I think I’ll will be ok with my red rocket with its current displacement.
I am surprised that they don't have the supercharged 5.5 in the C Class....My thinking is that you can't have the $50K MB faster then the more expensive ones..What a car that would be!!!!469hp 500+ lb ft torque
Well there is a few mods but this one mod'ed version of the c55 was out of control. It's a kleemann c55k s8, super nice upgrade sick amount of power they are boasting something like 600hp+ at 5800 and (estimated) 570lb at 2k rpm. Sounds crazy to me but more power to them! all it takes is cash [:D]
oh well there is tons of reviews on it... do a search for kleemann c55k s8, I think it was posted some where on this board too..
