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

leyenda · 05-05-2008, 10:00 AM

If your mom bought a C63 i don't now why she would be worrying about gas price.

Anyways, I just bought a C350 and at the dealer the guy told me not to push it hard until i reach the 1,000 miles and to keep it in C (cruise) (it should be the same for the C63). So try not to push the car hard until then (advice).

And the guy told me this couple days after i bought it, so i had already pushed it hard, but that was just only for about an hour.

Oh yeah and thanks for the write-up. Def good to read and good to see you're enjoying it!

I think break-ins are a bunch of BS. I think they're just put in place so that they don't have to replace anything that would break, which should most likely be under warranty.

It's good to vary the revs and speeds when you're driving a car during break-in. I don't think pushing it for a short period will cause any harm.

Oh and the CA told us to leave it in C if we didn't know how to use the paddles. lol.

niice... 65k is kinda STEEP. Shoulda got a GTR

ejheverest · 05-05-2008, 04:20 PM

good idea to vary speed, rpm, etc. during break-in,- vary heat cycles. We did this on the 20,000 bhp ships I worked on, to ensure proper seating of the rings and so we didn't ruin a 600,000$ piston/ring set.

Now that's a car even I can't see my mom driving. And you'd be saying good bye to practicality.

man i went to go see my salesperson at the MB dealership today hoping they would have the C63 but they didnt

wanted to take a look and drive it

instead though i got to drive the SL63. they just got it in two days ago!

i didnt even wanna drive it but our salesperson (same guy past 16 years) hesitated i do and i dont regret saying no

just as long as the C63 is a 4 door version (and a little slower, i know), i'll be happy

i cant even imagine how the SL65 is

wgf77 · 05-06-2008, 09:54 PM

C63 is amazing. If I didn't want to shift, I would choose the C63 over the 6-MT M3 sedan. I have a 6 speed coming and almost pulled the tigger on the MB. You can't say which is better but they are for completely different people. I like M3...

I believe the Black version of the C63 AMG is CL63 AMG. Price tag with fully option is 150K

Not really

The black series is the next step up from AMG... exactly what CSL is in comparison to M

The C class and the CL are two totally different models. Like comparing a 3 series to a 6 series.

Year's_End · 05-11-2008, 07:34 PM

I've been really lazy with the pics, so these two are hold-over ones haha.

I love the front.

Year's_End · 05-11-2008, 07:41 PM

Again, these are just crappy BB Pearl pics. Should be gettin on some good ones soon.

Nice, is this the Iridium Silver?

Year's_End · 05-11-2008, 08:30 PM

Yessuh.^

I'd like to see it in tenorite grey.

Year's_End · 05-12-2008, 04:20 PM

Here we go, some real pics. Well, it's not a full-blown photoshoot, but at least it's a real camera. Unfortunately my camera shat itself halfway through the process because I forgot to charge it, so I only have pics of the front and wheels.

More are on their way.

ybbiz34 · 05-12-2008, 04:33 PM

Thanks for the pics! Gorgeous car, what a mean front-end.

nusevad · 05-12-2008, 04:46 PM

Very nice and congrats to your mom!

One thing that bothers me is the non-existent wheel arches in the back. The front has a nice wideness but the back is virtually non-exist ant..

hks786 · 05-12-2008, 05:30 PM

beautiful shots man. I think that and grey are the best colours for this car! White is good too.
