I saw this car at a Chevron station on Avalon St./405 frwy in Long Beach this morning around 6am.Pics are from my camera phone and only had time to snap these before he and I both left the place.I got a look at the brakes,all painted flat black and they were good sized rotors.Car had a pano roof and alot of odd holes covered with black duct tape on the body.Grill was flat black as well as the wheels,brake calipers and most of the small trim pieces.Cant remember but I thought I saw dual exhaust tips tucked under,what looked to be a bumper that didnt belong to this exact car.Car also had a deep sound to the exhaust.The front bumper had a nice size air intake on both sides of the lower air dam area.The rear of the trunk had a long German word acrossed the right rear in the place of the C?? badge.Also the front wheels were 18in or soand the rears were 16-17in and different styles.Michigan plates on the car.Not positive but I'd say this might be a C63

Sweet! I didn't realize that the prototypes were on the streets already! Time for me to start keeping an eye out...

I don't see why that car won't be the C63. The non-AMG C classes are already being produced in Germany, and testing is complete on those models. The only thing left is the C63 (or maybe a 4Matic :dunno: )

Hell yeah! No matter what car you're in, there IS a way to spin 'em good! Whether it's stomping the gas, holding the brake, yanking the wheel or pulling the e-brake. Some cars require all of the above :wall:

Jangy, what's VPC?

They also add a number of accessories prior to send off to the dealerships. It is also where they send the test mules to for distribution. I got to see the CL63 there almost a year ago. It is the last MBUSA stop before it becomes public property. I can get us passes, if anyone wants to roll. The closest one is in OC.

We can make a cool event out of that. If there are enough cars to look at, and they won't be hiding those test mules, I'm down :thumbup:

Speaking of which, I'll be bringing my slimline camera with me. So even if they restrict photography, I'll still bring back some pics :D

No, I sneak cameras in my pockets, not in my body cavities :rofl:

Vadim, Sun and James would also be coming down from my area.

Jangy, I hope the time would be a non-traffic hour. It would suck having to deal with traffic for 3 hours on the drive down. No chance of making it a weekend?

I've seen a bunch of CLS63's running around here on wheels. Quite a few are graphite grey too. Any special mods that would stand out?

It sounds familiar. I'll keep an eye out for it.

Anyone important or is it just a car you like?
