Here she is...
200 miles in and VERY happy! Just come from a 2011 C63 (Performance Pack Plus and LSD) so nice to have a car that handles again. Feels very light and nimble compared to the Merc

Looking good and congrats on your purchase!
MPG over the Merc has got to be a bonus! They sound great don't they... Finding I want mine in Sport mode all the time, where as I didn't bother so much back when I had my 'plain' M3! |

cheers guys.
Overall mpg in the C63 was 17. Rear tyres less than 5k miles. Straight-line it was a road legal hot-rod! Doesn't like corners though |

Looks great, congrats
Whats your thoughts on the C63 ??? I would be interested to hear as a few friends have them and they seem to love them, esp as road cars. |

Great car. Mine was a saloon. I'd say probably the most comfortable car i've ever drove too - seats are fantastic. I came from a Boxster Spyder into the C63, and previous cars being a 997 GTS, and before that a 997.2 GT3 - so handling was a reality shock, to say the least. It felt very heavy. I'd say people buy AMG's for straight-line pace, engine noise, and that 6.3 badge on the front wing. Chest wig optional
