  | Mercedes C 63 AMG Pacecar for DTM  With the market launch of the Mercedes C 63 AMG not due until early 2008 in Europe and spring in the U.S., spy photographers have now caught the super sedan just outside the Nürburgring today in Pace Car guise. Besides the obvious lighting package on the roof and back glass, the C 63 is showing a completely revised front bumper fascia with enormous air intakes and carbon fiber strips on the bottom splitter in addition to the charcoal gray multi-spoke wheels and upgraded brakes. According to the spy photographer, this C 63 was significantly louder than a road going version which suggests the absence of rear silencers or possibly a power increase. "When idling, the sound was a deep roar but when accelerating it was painfully loud." The C 63 AMG will be the Pace Car for the DTM (German Touring Car Championships) final held at the Hockenheimring race circuit in Germany next weekend, October 12 - 14.

| Re: Mercedes C 63 AMG Pacecar for DTM That's what the front should have been from the start!  It looks so much better than the regular C63 which has too busy/cramped front. I would even say this looks better than the M3.  Just make it a little less massive for road use and you've got a new, better front for the C63. |

| Re: Mercedes C 63 AMG Pacecar for DTM Without those oversized and crap looking fog lights, the front of C63 looks 10 times better.

| Re: Mercedes C 63 AMG Pacecar for DTM With or without the fog lights at least I can take pleasure in knowing that its at least 9.99*10^98235702804802 better looking than the Japanese looking M3. <evilness ended> |
