I am puzzled about the plate shown in the pic below. It seems to me that somebody has a very poor opinion of his or her own car........  |

From one of the forums.

C63 AMG (205) SLOW!!!!!!
But only in the top end in certain circumstances. I love the car and haven’t had it long or done much highway driving.
I was driving in Comfort (usually do when I’m just driving normal) and I was on freeway going 75-80 in 7th gear obviously. I floored car, and it had no power barely. It still climbed up past 100mph but it just felt weak. In understand it’s not going to skyrocket my head back, but for a V8 just seemed weak.
Im sure if I downshifted it would have been fine. I noticed this also other times when I am already going fast (60,70,80) at a steady speed, and then I FLOOR it.
Also, my car had the Stock Tune on it for now. But my Stage 2 is about to go back on.
I’ve heard people talk about running out of OOOMMMPH on the Top End in these cars, but is this normal?
Schulminator:
Very normal...the small factory turbo chargers run out of steam up top...

That's a big surprise to me. I always thought that any Benz with an AMG tune would really go.

The Mercedes-AMG C63S (pictured above) makes 503 HP! Even at a heavy for it's size 3900 lbs, it is a sub 4 second to 60 car. Oh, and it tops out at 180mph!
It isn't "slow".
