C43 AMG Specifications

[skeletor]

I have just sold my Mitsubishi Lancer EVO 6 and I am in the process of looking for an C43 AMG.

I have carried out a search on the web to get some technical information about the car but can't find anything.

I am looking at a C43 tomorrow and would appreciate if anyone could point me in the right direction to get some information about the car including performance specs.

I have also tried to find the official AMG web site but cant find it. Does anyone know the web address for AMG.

Any help greatly appreciated.

It's a US link, but I used it to get some info....otherwise a search online for C43 will bring you back loads of stuff.

.....and go for it...you won't be disappointed..

Drop me a mail if you want any further information, q'ns etc??

C43 Brake Pads

I have just had one set of my C43's wheels refurbished and am looking for pads that emit less brake dust (OK OK I could drive more slowly, but ... why?).

Has anyone fitted kevlar pads and if so where di you get them?

My experience with brake pads is to stick to the standard pads. Hard ones wear the disc and soft ones wear the pads. There has been little real difference in braking efficiency or dust.

Interesting comment because I used kevlar pads on one of my other cars and a) braking was improved and b) dust was reduced to virtually zero.

Will try EBC and if they have them and they work out I'll post back.
