  • First Drive: Electronic charm school civilizes the wildest C-Class family members, the 2019 AMG C63 and C63 S — Even though the rowdiest members of any family eventually grow up, they don't always entirely mature. Mercedes-AMG has been walking a delicate line with its entire lineup over the past several years in a well-intentioned effort to refine what has traditionally been one of the woollier gatherings of hairy-knuckled luxury sports cars. They’re branded with the Silver Star, to be sure, but still wild enough to buck their riders in a bellowsome display of horsepower and oversteer.
  • 2019 Mercedes-AMG C63 First Drive Review — Sometimes, to help tame the beast you must first sharpen its claws. So it goes with the 2019 Mercedes-AMG C63 and C63 S, a full-fledged family of monsters wrapped in a golden fleece that does little to mask the sheer brutality of their twin-turbo output. Rather than dial back any aspect of the C63’s formidable character, AMG has instead elected to digitally parse its power by way of a host of high-tech helpers that secure its purchase on terra firma more effectively than in the previous model.
