That said, i'll have a c63, i won't be worrying about turbo issues with BMW.
Pretty sure that the next-gen C63 is going to be turbo as well; for better or for worse, I think they're going to become standard in performance cars and then in normal cars and they'll stay around until we move to performance hybrids, full electric, or even (gasp!) diesel in the US.
This is correct. Next gen C63 will be a 5.5L twin-turbo that is shared in the E63, S63, SL63, CLS63, CL63, G63, eh you get the point. Just as our legendary 4.0L V8 will be phased out, so will Mercedes-Benz's equally impressive 6.2L V8.
