C63 507 Price

[TackMEU]

I thought people might like to know.

Coupé priced at £66250 OTR, just spoke to MB Portsmouth and they have confirmed that.

It is a fair bit less than I thought it would be, (I concede that it is still an expensive motor).

And not really any different the current PP+. Only real differences are cosmetic.

Exactly Eddie. At that price, if anyone were in the market for a new pp+ car, this would be just the ticket.

They're taking the PP option away once the 507 goes into production (next month). It gets an LSD and the AMG media as standard, with some other bits; so not just the power upgrade to justify the £10k price hike.

Not really a power upgrade (same engine as PP+) going by PP+ true figures of over 500bhp, unless this 507 is actually more like 530/540. I quite like the idea of the Black-esque bonnet and the steering wheel. Is this just going to be another run-out model like the latest E9x M3-LE500's? Is this the last of the current C chassis 63's?

You had any orders for the 507 yet Matt?

dealer pdf shows that both are extra cost options on C63 507 ..

only extras apart from power (+50hp), torque (+10NM), faster (4.2 instead of 4.5 to 62mph) is 19" wheels, AMG Driver's Package (174mph limit and AMG driving event) and restricted paint and interior choices, albeit with flashes of black and grey here and there.

You could be right, I only had a quick glance when it came through last week and I'm not there this week to check.

Eddie, it should return more bhp than the standard PP cars, I would imagine their target market is current owners, who will want to see an increase in performance. Will be interesting to see how they perform on a RR when they hit the market.

We've only sold one so far - I think I'll order one to run for a few months to see what it's like. I'm not massively convinced on the looks from the pictures, the side stripe is a bit vauxhall!
