Considering that the 2023 C63 AMG has a turbocharged 4-cylinder hybrid system, we wanted to revisit the loudest iteration of Mercedes' compact combustion machine: the 2014 C63 AMG 507 Edition. What makes the 507 different from a regular C63 AMG?
*Correction: I said the brakes are ceramic compound but Mercedes calls them "the AMG Compound braking system" which is a two-piece disc (aluminum hub w/ steel disc) and a different pad material.
Engine: M156 6.2 liter
507HP @ 6800 (Base car had 450, P31 had 480, this has 507)
450LB-FT @ 5200
Trans: 7-speed automatic torque converter
Weight: 3900
Weight balance: 53/47, also better than the RS5.
Wheel base is 3” shorter than a new C63.
Struts in front, multilink rear
Steering ratio: 2.6 lock to lock.
BRAKES: 6-piston front / 4 piston rear. 14.4” front, 14.2 rear.
Special 19” rims

I have one with the P31 package (forged SLS internals etc.) pretty similar to this car. Although mine has a stock exhaust still (short exhaust note video on my channel). But I have a Stage 1 tune which means it probably has around 520 hp at the crank. It's an incredible machine. Absolutely intoxicating experience. To anyone considering buying one of these: If you can appreciate the sensations of a peak naturally aspirated engine and are not just looking to hunt numbers (it's still a fast car) you should just get one. It's such an emotional and extremely rewarding car. By the way, regarding the lazy gearshift: It you intend to shift it manually you HAVE to use the M mode. In all the other modes it really dislikes being "interrupted" by the driver and you should mostly let it shift by itself if you want to drive in C, S or S+. Awesome video!

From Car and Driver’s test of the 507: “What the 507 option doesn’t do is make the C63 any quicker than the ’12 C63 coupe. Equipped with the discontinued $6050 AMG Development package, that 481-hp C63 was the quickest of any C63 we’ve encountered, hitting 60 mph in 3.7 seconds, quicker than what we saw in the 510-hp Black Series. This C63’s launch-control programming is entertaining, but we still managed to beat it by a few tenths by applying light brake torque to the engine. With that technique, 60 mph arrived in 3.9 seconds. We also tested a C63 507 sedan, which is lighter than the coupe by 45 pounds and managed a 3.8-second time. The take-away from all of this test talk: Every C63 we’ve ever run hit 60 mph in less than four seconds. They’re all quick, with or without the optional power.” In other words there’s no reason to spend extra on the P31 or 507. Just get the nicest one you can afford, and do the head bolts if it’s an early car.

I have a 2014 c63 507 edition. Those are not the 19in wheels that comes from the factory. Those are aftermarket replacements. Also the 507 does not come with carbon composite breaks. It is upgraded to 2 peice front steel breaks compared to the regular c63. Those break rotors look like they are still on this car

Bought one pre pandemic for 33k big spec aswell, sold it for 43k last year and bought an f90 m5 and 12 months into the f90 it’s going back in for another 507. I’ve had an e92 m3 frozen edition, GTS Merc and this will be my 3rd 63 and 2nd 507. For me it’s my favourite car The m5 will kill it in a straight line and round corners, but the soul and absolute ludicrous handling is what makes the 63 that bit more. Especially if you get one with an LSD If your looking at buying one do it.

@armenmotors1749 Год назад

You gotta love the W204 C63 especially the Edition 507, it is one of the best cars AMG has ever made. Super car performance with everyday practicality. Last of the 6.2 litre V8 Definitely a future classic. Too bad they are so rare.

@richardg3748 Год назад

Hello and thanks for doing the C63 review. I have a 2009 W204 C63 AMG with the P30 package. Stock hp was 451 at the crank. Around 2015 or so I contacted Eurocharged and inquired about the ECU tune. Supposedly the tune would add 100 hp at the crank. A dyno following resulted in 425.2 wheel hp and 370 max torque. Since then I had the head bolts done, and was told that I’d probably see a small gain in Hp and torque but haven’t had another dyno to verify. The car is as much fun to drive as the first time each time that I take it out. Cheers.

P31 and 507 are the same tune, the only difference is the hood. The carbon fiber bits, lip, and red paint calipers are also standard on the 507/P31, whereas they don't appear on the base model. The 2 tone seats are a stand alone option on any 2011+ (facelift) C63. Next year will be my 10th year of ownership and currently at 101K miles -- ironically my most reliable car over so long

@howardg186 Год назад

The ‘composite’ front brakes are aluminium bells with steel rotors, which are different from the stock c63 (and the best of all the three c63s i have had). So the car in the vid has the correct brakes for a 507. 507 edition also got (different from stock): - Red dial inserts - Speed limiter raise to 174mph - Black daytime running light surrounds - Special gearshift knob with amg embossed logo - Special key with amg embossed logo - Alcantara steering wheel and shifter surround - Special graphics down the side (the first time these featured on a merc production car i think?) Agree with your conclusion by the way, the ‘standard’ cars are flippin epic and so are the 507s 🙌🏼

I had a 2010 P30 package. I loved it. Everyone I knew hated it. The P30 had an absurdly harsh ride. They scrapped that suspension after 2010. With a tune I had over 500 crank hp.....getting 9mpg. I ended up with a hellcat a few years later that some how was more efficient. 😂

@jeebus2121 Год назад

0:07 - not a lie, I actually have been tracked by police this way before. One followed the sound in a city at night and pulled me over, but since they never had a speed, they couldn't charge me with anything. The primary way the 'normal' C63 was limited in power by Mercedes was the throttle body only being allowed to open around 83%. If you connect any of the ODB2 monitoring devices, it's easy to note.

@Dou6.2 Год назад

These are so much more refined than the 2008/09 Cars especially 09 P30 - last year before changes etc/ torque Converter - Now thats the nasty muscle car C63 😎. MCT makes it feel like an M3 for me.

Those arent the original forged 19 inch amg rims that came with it, the oem wheel looks 100× better then those aftermarket ones. The trans is a multiclutch btw not torque converter, and it can easily be swapped to a 370z manual 6 speed, theres a few u can see on youtube that have been swapped, e55s, no 63s but the same process I contacted the shop, but I would hate to lose those nasty pops on upshift n downshift by going to manual

To answer your question about the P31 and 507 having same engine and same power numbers, my educated guess would be yes. My reasoning: MB’s M113K motor that that put in the E55, S55, CLS55 and SL55. In all but the S55, they rated it at 469hp. But in the S55 it was rated at 510hp. Many people have tested them, and they all put out the same power numbers. AMG Meister confirmed it.

@desertwindauh Год назад

I got an early W204 (2008) C63 AMG Sedan and enjoyed it for its nimble drive amid its amazing power delivery. The an opportunity came round and I was able to get a 507 figuring it would be just as nimble with even more power. Nope. In the interim time from the early 2008-2009 W204 C63s to the latter facelifted 2010 and beyond they "refined" the cars but in so doing everything had been dulled. Not as responsive to drive dynamically and the promise of power did not materialize. So, off the 507 went. I did try a 2010 C63 Coupe with the power pack for a while, but it never really replicated just how much fun the earlier cars were to drive. Moral of the story: take it from someone who owned all three, for me, the most fun car to drive was the early 2008/2009 C63. Don't waste your time or money on the others. Of course, the C63 Black Series is the daddy, but if you don't have the cash, just get the early one. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Picked up a w212 e63 with the m156. They're bargains for what they offer. Sure there's maintenance but m156 has been around long enough there's a tutorial for everything

@robboy18 Год назад

I did exactly the same. Wonderful machine.

@editingiswhatido Год назад

Exactly. The community surrounding this car is massive. I can probably do full engine teardowns on this motor just because of the people I follow on youtube, there are so many step by step tutorials and research outlets via forums & reddit as well.

@talkditingsdem5799 Год назад

It's a simple and straight forward engine to work on, I've owned and own 3 m156 engines, I also own the m157 and m177, the m156 engine is one of a kind.

I want one of these real bad but e9x fits my use case a lot better. Once i have to start climbing the two car ladder it will make a great daily. Until then, s2000 ftw

Once you switch to Mercedes, it's hard to go back to anything else. I love mine. Us Mercedes fans are like the Tesla cult, but our car isn't a pile of shit. 🤣

@@americansmark 😂😂 the merc is as nimble as a hellcat. 4000lb sports car? No. The E9x M3 of the day will run circles around the merc and it sounds just as epic + 8250 redline.

@@TML34 I don't want a sports car. I want a Mercedes. You can have all your racing. I can be sideways in a cloud of tire smoke and happier than a pig in shit.

@@americansmark true. That is really the AMG sweet spot…massive burnouts!

@c63tay70 Год назад

@@TML34 driving both of them back to back, you will not notice that the m3 is lighter. Extensively driven both; brakes are the same, they break traction the same, the c63 smashes in the streets 9/10 times, and tuned also can beat the m3 on the track, as the e9x m3 can hardly hit 400 wheel horsepower. Stock for stock I’d bet on the m3 for any track though.

beautiful review Zachary. i felt like i was really taking the ride with u and shooting the shit. the reviews of slightly older models have this nostalgia to them because we clearly remember the time.. it wasn’t long ago… but so much has changed since then

@TheExotich1 Год назад

The E9X M3 competed with the W204 not the F80.

What's the reliability like on these cars?

@Allspadez Год назад

180k on my 2011 C63. Basic upkeep is required. The oil changes imo are the most important thing to keep up with due to the type of valvetrain the M156 has.
