Presumeably in response to BMW’s M3 ‘Edition’ models announced in June, Mercedes-Benz has responded with a limited edition C63 AMG model on sale in Australia. Mercedes say the C63 AMG ‘Edition 63′, of which only – you guessed it – 63 will be available, has been built specifically for the Australian market.

Featuring all the standard goodies including the fire-breathing 336 kW AMG-built, 6.2-litre V8-engine from the standard model, the Edition 63 gets exclusive DTM-style, 19-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels painted in titanium grey with a high-sheen finish, three ‘designo’ paint colours – Platinum Black; Mystic White; or Allanite Grey – and a choice of two unique upholstery colours in soft designo leather – sand or classic red.

You’ll also find illuminated door sills with blue lighting adorning the entry to the front seats.

Worthy of special mention is designo magno Allanite Grey paint job. This special colour is a matte finish, creating a tougher appearance and a unique-to-its segment paint type, for what is certainly one of the world’s stealthiest sports cars.

Pricing for the Mercedes-Benz C 63 AMG “Edition 63″ is AUS$169 900 for the sedan and AUS$172 900 for the estate.
