With the C63, a very desirable, but expensive option was the upgraded Performance Plus Package (called P31), which brought a suite of improvements, including forged pistons, connecting rods and lightweight crankshaft from the SLS AMG, together with a new engine management system. Power output was raised to 358kW, torque remained unchanged. There was also a limited slip diff as well as 2-piece front rotors. Wheels went from 18 inch to 19 inch and the package was capped off with red Brembo brake callipers.

Cosmetically the P31 package also came with a carbon fibre lip boot spoiler and a steering wheel in black Nappa leather and Alcantara. Black leather covered the upper section of the dashboard, the upper door trim and the armrest on the centre console. In Australia the P31 improvements added $18,000 to the price of the standard C63.

With a lifetime’s experience in tuning high performance cars (including having run a specialist workshop overseas), the owner has carefully further improved the C63, including an Evolve Technik ECU upgrade, uprated valve lifters, re-profiled camshafts, larger brakes, K&W adjustable coilovers, strut brace, uprated oil cooler and a suite of other improvements – most noticeable being 46 kW extra.

All the original equipment has been retained and will go with the car.

This exceptionally well-sorted car’s mileage is just over 81,000km. It drives especially well, is tight and clearly cherished.
