“I JUST LIKE THE SOUND OF A V8.”- Jeremy Clarkson The End of an Era – 2013 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Edition 125 Coupe (6.2 V8) OVERVIEW This is it. The end of an era. The last naturally aspirated V8 from AMG — and, for many of us, the one we keep coming back to. The car that reminds us what Mercedes once stood for: overengineering, thunderous power, and a sense of drama that modern cars just can’t fake. The 2013 C63 AMG Coupe Edition 125 wasn’t just a trim level — it was the 125th anniversary of the Mercedes-Benz brand. AMG marked the milestone with something truly special: a limited, high-spec variant of the M156-powered C63, with the full-fat 6.2-litre V8 under the bonnet and a refined, more luxurious edge inside. These were some of the last AMGs built before the downsizing era began. The last of the proper ones. And this example? It’s one of the cleanest and best-documented you’ll find. Finished in Iridium Silver with stunning Designo Classic Red leather, it combines all the menace of the C63’s flared arches, rear-biased chassis and quad pipes, with a sophisticated edge you rarely see on these cars. Panoramic roof, 19" AMG alloys, COMAND navigation, Harman Kardon sound — this is a full-fat Edition 125, just as it left the factory. Underneath it all is that engine. The 6.2-litre naturally aspirated M156 V8, hand-built in Affalterbach, still delivering one of the greatest soundtracks in motoring. No turbos, no fakes — just old-school, naturally aspirated thunder. It’s the engine that made Clarkson, Harris, and just about every motoring journalist go quiet and grin. We’ve driven it. Felt it build from low rumble to frenzied roar. And truthfully, there’s nothing quite like it. But what makes this car stand out isn’t just the spec — it’s the way it’s been kept. The service file is thick, well-presented, and reassuring. There’s real care in the paperwork — no cut corners. From Mercedes-Benz main dealers to respected independents like MCS Performance, Cars Matter, Red Star and T. Wright Performance, the car has received exactly what it needs, when it needs it. The most recent full service has just been carried out under Vertex Collection standards, ready for its next home. Everything about this C63 tells the same story — of someone who knew what they had. Who looked after it. Who respected the rarity of the Edition 125 and the legacy of the last great AMG V8. Paintwork is superb. The interior is shockingly clean. Wheels and tyres are spot-on. It feels tight, responsive, and properly powerful. There are no excuses here — only an invitation to own one of the great performance coupes of the 21st century. If you’ve been waiting for the right C63 — the right spec, the right condition, and the right provenance — this is it.
