C63 vs. CLK63 BS
#11
It would be my daily driver.
I'm not planning on doing any tuning to the car.
I'm trying to get rid of the backseats so people dont ask me for rides.
If anyone owns one that can give me some input on the car I'd appreciate it. Does it go through tires as bad as the C63 does etc.
Btw if I get it i plan on getting it in black. All benz's look the best in black in my opinion

The only complaint I have with the car is; it's hard to keep your foot out of it. This thing has the potential to get me in a he!! of a lot of trouble..... It's very entertaining to say the least...

Mine is a dd here in TX and I think it's magnificent.
I've used 3 sets of tires, the stock Corsa's are a fantastic tire but really expensive. On my second set, I only use them on the track and I have 800 track miles and 1,000 street miles. Just typing that makes me want to stand up and applaud!
First set of street only Corsa's I got about 5k miles which is more than most C63 drivers get. However, their tires don't cost $2,200 for the set.
I'm now using Vredestein Sessanta's on the street and I'm very pleased. I have 5,500 miles and I believe another 2k before the rears are shot.
They cost just inside of $1k for 4 tires! Compare that to the Corsa's.
Since I don't drive that hard on the street, the Sessanta's should wear for another 2 to 3k miles ... I hope.

Since you're in FL it would be a acceptable dd. Northern streets where they get freeze and thaw is not pleasing to the Black Series.

I'm with you on the Vredesteins! Had a set on my 928 GTS and just ordered another set for my SL55! They are a very economical great quality tire.

It was 4 1/2 months from my first drive until I bought one.
Once they got near my target price it only took a month to find and close.
Be patient, you'll find a white one.

Mine was origanlly owned by the guy who owns Foriegn Cars Italia. He put 235 miles on it and sold it to us. We were going to buy a Maserati Gran Turismo from FCI and saw the BS sitting in the back, had them start it up and that was that! No Maser, we had a BS! Never lusted after one and never drove one until we were taking it home........ Can't imagine wanting one and having to wait! GL, I hope you find one soon!
