The sinister beast that is the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe Black Series is the kind of car that is arguably best enjoyed in its natural habitat, which is none other than the racetrack.
To prove this, the German firm took the most powerful production version of its C-Class Coupe to the Laguna Seca circuit in California for some quick laps and shared the video with us.
Revealed to the public for the first time at the 2012 Frankfurt International Motor Show in September, the Black Series builds on the regular C63 AMG Coupe adding a more potent version of the 6.2-liter V8 with 517-horses and 620 Nm (457 lb-ft), a stiffer suspension setup and a host of aerodynamic improvements.
