About the C63 AMG Coupe

The 2011 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe is a rear-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,730 kg with 451 bhp, which works out at 260 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 260 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.05 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 895th quickest to 60 mph, and the 71st quickest of the 254 Mercedes-Benzs here. Its 114.5 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-09-01. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
