Check every box with the live configurator
The 2015 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG 4Matic coupe is ready for its North American debut. The biturbo V8 Benz delivers 577 hp and 664 lb-ft of torque, and drops as much as 128 pounds over the regular S-class coupe thanks to a lightweight battery, new alloy wheels and an optional composite braking system.The configurator is live now, and there are lots of expensive options. We managed to max out at just over $205,000, and that’s without any custom designo stuff.
We drove the new S63 AMG over the summer and quite enjoyed the ride. The 5.5-liter AMG V8 reaches peak power at 5,500 rpm and peak torque at a low 2,250 rpm. It can get to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds on its way to a limited top speed of 186 mph. The coupe is still a heavyweight at about 4,700 pounds, making that top speed even more impressive.
