It would be good to know the power if you go anywhere near a rolling road
Book power 487bhp
Mine was 503bhp totally standard

It could still be producing 487 horses... just depends on the dyno operator and the correction factor he was using to allow for the transmission losses, and ambient air pressure/temperature. 503 is only 3.28 percent more than quoted 487.... which is neither here or there and not many dynos are that accurate. With a few exceptions most cars produce at bit less than claimed....

Whilst I agree with what you’re saying in terms of the operator and their ability to deliberately or accidentally present a different result, these cars are known to produce 50X BHP on the dyno.

Former member Palmball posted about power outputs of this model quite a lot, here are a couple of posts on the topic.

Acid at MSL also said 99% of all ppp cars hes done they all were 500+ thats why i couldn't justify the cost of the 507

5 years ago, I had my W202 C36 & C43/55 used for a magazine feature in Modern Classics magazine.


The journalist from that feature emailed me yesterday, to see if I knew anyone with a S204 C63 AMG for a magazine group test for a different magazine, your lucky day my friend...
As soon as I can divulge more, I will do.

Was part of the magazine photoshoot yesterday. Have ben asked not to share any group pictures, or info on the magazine and content, which is fair enough.
This was the only picture I took, without the other cars around.




One of the jobs I didn't get to do recently was remove the calipers for BCS to repaint, so they are coming off tomorrow to be sent away next week.
