Just as I expected 3856# curb weight for C63 and 3924# for C63S, people actually believed this would be 3600# lol

However the option packages are way better than what BMW does. Lets you get some of the essential options without forcing you to get a $4000 package to get a backup camera. C63S is actually priced quite well. Despite the weight this has the best engine in this segment. Built a pretty nice C63S for $79.4k - LED lights, COMAND multimedia, AMG seats, blind spot.

Agreed on the weight-I was saying the same thing. By the time a loaded model hits Car and Driver's scales I have a feeling it'll crest 4000lbs, putting it right in line with the RC-F.

That is considered a conservative #. In the right hands it can produce some better numbers, I believe C & D 3.7

Not too surprised at the small rear windows. The S class coupe also has a very high belt line and the front and rear windows are pretty narrow as well. I don't see a pillarless design though....

So in Germany the C63s weighs 1730 kilos but that includes a fuel tank @ 90% full and a driver who weighs 68 kilos and 7 kilos of luggage.
In lbs that would be 3806 lbs - 165 lbs = 3641 lbs with gas at 90%
DOT weight isnt out yet..

This is what the German website states.
