Air Lift Performance Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG (2008-2015) Performance Series Kit

Eight cylinders, 6.2-litres and 450 naturally-aspirated horses being sent to the rear wheels. Sounds like the perfect ingredients for a proper American Muscle car, right? Apart from this one’s a little bit European… in fact, it’s a LOT European. It’s a Mercedes-Benz C-Class.

In case you haven’t guessed, this isn’t your normal C-Class Benz. Nor is it a one-off tuner special, either. This is the Mercedes-Benz C63; a full-fat super saloon tuned by AMG straight from the factory with all the power and torque you could ever need. So, where’s the catch?

Well, the first slight issue is this particular C63 AMG is no longer available brand-new. Produced between 2008 and 2013, this was the last C63 to get the big brutal N/A engine with its replacement making do with a 4.0-litre twin-turbo instead. We’re not about that downsizing life here at Air Lift, so we’re staying focused on the W204-shape C63 for now.

Secondly, and more importantly, is the stock ride height and suspension. No car this potent should have a ride-height capable of giving its occupants a nose bleed no matter how brutal its engine. Thankfully we’ve already got that covered…
