JUST GOT A C63! Holy sh****t I love this car!

Well, here's a lil' story I have to tell you guys.

So today I suggested that my mom should take a look at the new X6 (XDrive35i) today, as I saw the demo car a couple days ago. She's been complaining about her CLK55 and how impractical it is, so I said she should just take a look and see what she thinks.

So we drive down to our local dealer, and right away she says, "I dunno...it looks weird". And that was pretty much that. She didn't like the looks of it, and the concept of the vehicle wasn't flying with her. That's okay, I figured, it's not really a must have car. I thought she might have liked it though.

So she suggests that we drive down to the MB dealer, but we've been there a million times and I didn't think that there would be anything new there. Well, we start heading down there and she ends up saying, "well, I actually just wanted you to help me get some chairs at Rooms-to-Go". Well, anyways, the MB dealer happens to be on the same street as the Rooms-to-Go when you're driving from the BMW dealer.

As we're driving by the MB dealer, I notice a special car in the midst of dozens of C-Classes - a C63! I was like we are turning around now. We have to look at this thing.

Well...one thing led to another...and that led to a test drive...which led to sheer intoxication...which led to her purchasing it! I was actually somewhat hysterical at how spontaneous the moment was. Really, that doesn't just happen.

Well, I'm only gonna give a short summary of my opinions of this car: f*cking amazing. It makes me want to cry with joy due to the sheer joy you get driving this beast. The SEATS are the best I've ever experienced.

In comparison to the M3, I think this really is the better buy for daily use. I mean, I've almost completely ruled out an M3 with DKG as my next car after driving this thing! I would never have guessed that!

The sound...oh...the sound. Believe those exhaust vids you've been hearing. It's all that and more.

I love this thing.

Yep, with this whole BMW warranty voiding issue and the fact that I think about this car every day, I guess I need to prepare to go to the dark side.

But what color?!

what's up with women and spontaneous car purchases. My wife did the same thing. Here's how the conversation went over the phone:

Me: Hey, what's up.

Her: Don't be mad?

Me: What?

Her: I bought a new car.

Me: YOU DID WHAT!?!

Hmmm... I'm going with whatever color doesn't cost extra on the outside on top of whatever color doesn't cost extra on the inside. Just give me a radio, those seats, the AC, wheels, tires, and that motor??? I'm solid.

Part of me thinks your wife is crazy for impulse car buying when picking out a car takes me over a year. The other part of me is jealous that you have a wife that would go out and buy a car. I've got to find one of those.
