For the sales volume the C63 does, investing more money for fitting the new engine is most likey not cost-effective.

Being in alternative energy, I do have some "ceilings" to consider... but whatever I get will be properly "exercised"...

I wonder maybe they will put these engines in Nissans/Infiniti's since its been rumored. Makes sense for Benz to keep the new engines and give Nissan the older engines. Then you can get a Japanese/French/German orgy car
