Another pic of my new C63

First mod is always window tint. They're not as dark as they look in this pic though - cloudy day and weird angle.

I absolutely LOVE this car. I am still shocked that MB actually made it. It is so much rawer and meaner than I would ever expect an AMG car to be. BMW better really bring it with their next gen M cars. It is exactly what a factory tuner car should be - if we want just a faster version, we'll buy the bigger engine in the standard model. Factory tuner should be raw, nimble, loud and feel totally different than the standard model. For that, MB was incredibly successful with this car.

I'm even getting better gas mileage than I got in my M5! 8 compared with 6

C63 is a great car, very subtle, but scary fast... Just wish they would offer a manual! Congrats on the new ride.

If your ever bored of it get the VATH tunning kit, it will bring the power up to 580ish hp.

A real manual would be very fun. Surprisingly, I find the 7spd Auto to be every bit as good as my former SMGII in manual mode and much much better in auto mode. I believe that in manual mode it locks the torque converter so it acts just like a manual. It even rev-matches and snarls on downshifts.
