Finally, showing its presence in the Malaysian market, the car features all the right exterior AMG fitments, including an aggressive AMG A-wing front bumper design, a twin-blade AMG grille with a piano black insert, large air intakes, quad exhaust tips and more.

Going the AMG route has brought about additional exterior kit compared to the regular S-Class Coupe – there a new bumper design shaped in the same vein as the E 63 AMG's, larger side sills and new 19-inch ten-spoke forged wheels in 255/45R19 rubbers up front and 285/40R19 in the rear. As an option, you can also go for a 20-inch 10-spoke type wrapped in 255/45R20 tyres up front, and 285/35R20 for the rear.

Even more, there is also a third wheel option to consider for your S 63 Coupe in the form of a 20-inch, five twin-spoke design painted in titanium grey with a high-sheen finish and a black wheel bolt cover. However, the pricing for such accessories are still in the dark.

The engine is paired with a seven-speed AMG Speedshift MCT transmission, an automatic unit with its torque converter replaced with a multi-pack clutch. The S 63 is available as a rear-wheel drive offering or as a 4MATIC variant, and each comes with a different AMG suspension setup – the former gets Magic Body Control while the 4MATIC gets a version of the standard AIRMATIC air suspension. The Malaysian-spec car, the only S-Class Coupe model sold here, is the rear-wheel drive version, and performance figures include a 0-100 km/h of 4.3 seconds for it (the 4MATIC version is a shade faster, at 3.9 seconds).
