I’ve owned the 2018 C63S for over a year, and I must say the horsepower is insane! The V8 produces 503 hp, and you really feel it in the acceleration. It’s a joy to drive!

Totally agree! The acceleration is thrilling. I’ve raced a few cars, and the C63S always leaves them in the dust from a standstill.

Handling is top-notch as well! I took my C63S on a winding mountain road, and it felt glued to the pavement. You can feel the road with great feedback.

For sure! Plus, the sound of that V8 engine is music to my ears. I can’t get enough of it!

How does it compare in wet conditions? I’ve heard mixed reviews about its performance on slick roads.

In the rain, it can be a bit tricky if you’re too aggressive on the throttle. Just keep the traction control on, and you’ll be fine!

Great advice! I’ve also learned that the C63S excels in snow with the right tires, surprisingly enough.

I think it performs better than its competitors like the BMW M3, mainly due to the engine sound and brute force. Opinions?

I’d argue that the M3 has better handling. But the C63S definitely offers a more exhilarating driving experience overall.

I often joke that my C63S is like my pet lion. It’s powerful, fierce, but needs tame handling! What do you all think?

Haha, love that comparison! Definitely fits my experience, especially during those spirited drives.

Can anyone share their thoughts on the comfort level for long drives? I’m curious how it performs on road trips.

It’s surprisingly comfortable! The seats are plush, and while it’s sporty, I found it manageable for a few hours on the road without fatigue.

I’ve driven the 2018 C63S and was really impressed with the interior quality. The leather seats are top-notch, and the overall cabin layout feels premium.

Absolutely! Those seats are incredibly comfortable, especially on long drives. You can really sink into them!

The infotainment system is a bit complex at first, but once you get the hang of it, it’s quite user-friendly. Just takes some time to figure out all the features!

I had the same experience! It definitely gets easier, but I still find myself reaching for the manual sometimes.

Is cabin space a concern? I’m 6’3

Honestly, I found there to be plenty of space for taller drivers. It felt roomy enough even during a long drive!
