Here are first spy photos of the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series Coupe. These photos were taken at Mercedes' technical development center near the Nürburgring.

Earlier this week spy photographers captured first photos of the C63 AMG Black Series in sedan form. AMG boss, Ola Kallenius, has previously hinted that two Black Series variants were on the way.

Typical of Black Series models, this prototype has much wider wheel arches and looks a little lower to the ground than the series C63 AMG Coupe. Spies also got a chance to look under the hood while engineers were having a peek. Unfortunately it is inconclusive as to what engine is perched under there.

A previous report places the 5.5-liter V8 biturbo, as seen in the S63 AMG with the AMG Performance Package, which is tuned to produce 571 PS (420 kW / 563 bhp) and 900 Nm (664 lb-ft) of torque. However, in Black Series guise, it is speculated to produce in excess of 600 PS.

With such a high profile vehicle, there is bound to be such speculation. We'll just have to wait and see.

I'm with you guys, this coupe is long overdue! Very happy to see it, don't want to be the party pooper but in the photo with the hood up you can see it's the 6.2 liter 63 motor not the bi-turbo. Of course this could change but I'm thinking it will end up with the same motor as the C63 Black Sedan. I love that motor anyway, it will still be an awesome ride!

I thought the 6.2 liter V12 also comes with the Bi-Turbo?

The V12 bi-turbo has a 6.0 (5.98) liter engine, not 6.2. That one's called 65. Then there is the 63 NA which will also be placed in the C63 BS. Not the 5.5 bi-turbo, also named 63. And badaboom, no, it won't have 600+ hp. It'll probably be somewhere around the SL 63's 518 hp.
