C63s
After a week...

Got my Palladium 63S Estate last Monday.

HUD and Sports Exhaust the must have options.

Ride and tyre noise slightly worse than I expected but not an issue.

Down change in Comfort a bit lumpy when accelerating at low revs. Car in too high a gear. Feels like not enough low down torque so lurch from 6th to 3rd on only slight pressure of accelerator

As others have commented, need a lot of throttle to move away and have to be sensitive to avoid sudden lurch.

Otherwise great. Attempting to run in but car begs to be driven

Possibly contentious but imo car screaming out for 4 wheel drive. On greasy UK roads traction is already a major factor

I agree, a 4 matic in this c63s would have been perfect.

I am very torn on the idea of 4 wheel drive.... I know it would be much quicker and handle better. But, right now I love the beast in RWD! it is just too fun. I might think differenty when I am paying buying my first set of rear tires...
