20.01.2017GT-Spirit and the Mercedes-AMG C 63 coupé edition 1

On September 4, 2015, the Mercedes-AMG launched the special model C 63 Coupé Edition 1, which was intended to accompany the market introduction of the C 63 Coupés and the C 63 S Coupé. In contrast to the production cars, the introductory edition was characterized by an exclusive color combination in designo selenitgrau magno with yellow folio and black wheels with yellow painted rim horns and thus corresponded to the graphic design of the IAA launch version of the Mercedes-AMG C 63 DTM Renncoupés for the German Touring Car Masters ( DTM). The equipment of the special model emphasizes the proximity to motor sport with performance seats and the aerodynamics package. From this very special model, GT-Spirit has a 1:18 miniature miniature limited to just 1,000 copies, which we will present here, together with the model, in more detail.

The colors in the initially mentioned matt lacquer with yellow foliage on the bonnet, roof, rear lid as well as the side lines above the sill panels were exclusively available to the S version. GT-Spirit has transferred the varnishing as well as the films in really excellent work to the model car from Resine plastic. The comparison between the model and the model of the photographs attached to this article demonstrates the processing quality of the miniature as well as the correct impression the modellauto has taken over from the big brother for the road. The replicas of the original light, matt black Performance Schmiederäder in the 5-doublepunk design with yellow painted rim horns match as well as the proportionally reduced tires.

The details under the magnifying glass

The size is 9.0 J x 19 with 255/35 R 19, rear 10.5 J x 20 with tire 285/30 R 20. The C 63 S Coupé of the Edition 1 is standard with the ceramic high-performance composite brake system Which offers the best possible deceleration and lower unsprung masses and thus also increases race track performance; Can be recognized by the yellow brake calipers, whose surface structure teaches the model to be knowledgeable. The AMG aerodynamics package in high-gloss black complements the racing-inspired look: the additional large front spoiler, the specific side skirts, the side edges of the rear apron, the rear diffuser and the tear-off edge on the trunk lid reduce the buoyancy and sharpen the model The visual impression.

GT-Spirit has also not forgotten the standard AMG Night package with chrome tailpipes. This includes the following features: Cooling grille with double-skillet in silver-chrome, A-wing of the front skirt and trim strip A-Wing in high-gloss black, Side skirts in high gloss black, Side edge skirting in high gloss black, Glass from the B-pillar and the already mentioned exhaust system with two chrome-plated double-tailpipes. Of the fine technology is unfortunately less to be seen in the model: The AMG 4.0-liter V8-Biturbomotor with the C 63 S 375 kW / 510 hp. On board is the AMG RideControl chassis with electronically controlled shock absorbers.

Top-class work of GT-Spirit also in the interior

The driver of the prototype can play around with the AMG Dynamic Select driving programs and rely on rear axle differentials or on the dynamic engine mountings. The AMG Performance seats are covered with leather nappa and take up the color yellow in the contrasting seam of the specific diamond pattern - the model is modeled with soft lacquer and hand coloring, As well as the more contoured seat shape and the yellow contrasting seams in the door panels, the arm rests, the steering wheel rim as well as the side edges and the instrument cluster. An example that Tobias Moers brings in the above embedded video even closer and to the GT-Spirit a really great model car built. We wish you a nice weekend!
