 More Mercedes C-Class Coupe photos leaked
2012 Mercedes C-Class Coupe leaked photo, 1600, 10.02.2011

Here's a second batch but this time in high-res

Forgive us for being anti-climatic but just in case you missed the first batch of C-Class Coupe leaked photos, here's a second batch but this time in high-res.

Once again leaked by a German magazine, these photos follow last week's Mercedes Super Bowl television commercial in which the C-Class Coupe and SLS AMG Roadster were teased.

Set to debut in Geneva next month the all-new coupe carries the same facelifted sedan and estate design, however, everything else aft of the A-pillar is unique to the coupe.

Engine options will also carry over except for the AMG versions. Rumors suggest that unlike the facelifted C 63 AMG sedan and estate, which use a 6.3-liter (6208cc) V8 with 451 hp (336 kW / 457 PS), the coupe will feature a naturally-aspirated version of the twin-turbo 5.5-liter V8 from the S63 AMG and CLS 63 AMG. Additionally, there will be second AMG variant - the sinister C-Coupe Black Series with a twin-turbo 5.5-liter V8 with up to 571 PS (420 kW / 563 bhp) and 900 Nm (664 lb-ft) of torque.

In less than three weeks we will be enlightened.

I think even the 2.0L I-4 would be fun with a 6-speed!

I think this is going to be up there as one of the best Merecedes to come out of Stuttgart in a few decades. I love it! They need to ensure that they have a power-train option to compete with the BMW 335.

I fear that a Black Series AMG with a twin-turbo engine capable of around 570bhp will be faster and as good, if not better handling, as the SLS... But Hell, i would gladly take one, thank you! :D

Doubt it, the SLS is much lower, has a more rigid frame, and a wider wheel base. 1 is a souped up coupe the other is a sports car.

This car seems to "click" well.. In my design-based opinion. The design much more aesthetically pleasing than its predecessor, the CL.

Very nice car. Rear side window and the shoulder line are more BMW than Mercedes though. I hope MB would offer manual gearboxes with bigger engines.

not a chance...........and usually AMG version is only good for straight line acceleration bcuz they just stuff it with big engine. To beat the M3........u gotta have more than that, u gotta at least corner!!

GOD YESSS, call it what you want but C55 AMG is back, and coupe, and so goood. I love it, natural aspirated C55, perfect fit for this coupe, this will be an M3 killer, and AUDI S4-RS4 killer, way to go mercedes!

The car looks nice but I think they should of made the back of the car more distinguishable from the C Class sedan...
