2011 C63 AMG
Picked up my C63 today

Hello, I am new to the forum. I just picked up my 2011 C63 AMG yesterday. Black on Black premium AMG seating, Multimeadia, all the goodies but the Development Package Coming from a 2008 BMW 335XI. All I can say is WOW. This car is an absolute beast and I couldnt be happier.

Crazy, I also came from an 08 e92 335xi. Even with the JB3 the C63 feels faster although I think they may be very close.

Still a different beast

Yeah a I agree with the jb3 it is very quick but the C63 is so fast at all ranges and stock!! The interior as well is light years ahead. I am very happy and I haven't even really pushed it yet as I am breaking it in for the first 1K miles. Although that may be hard to stick to.

Thank you to everyone for the warm welcome.

Congrats. The car is a beast and is fun to drive. Enjoy it in manual mode to soak up that exhaust note after you break it in.

I drove manual since I had it at 200mi. Just dont stay at above 4500 rpm for more than a second until broken in of course(manual recommendations). Warm it up quick through casual driving. Not recommended to idle more than 5 min. at a time. Once you hit 175f, you may punch it. Oil change at 1k mi. Don't get duped into paying for differential fluid change at 2k mi. unless you have LSD. I don't understand how a tech can charge for something that he can not do. Isn't that illegal? OT: Enjoy the beast! Hope this helps.

I came from an e92 335i with Procede and a few other mods. That car had some great low-mid range power but ran out at redline and in the top end. My c63 with a tune and an x-pipe is a much faster car. That being said, the power is harder to put down in the first 3 gears but on the highway I have no doubt the C63 would have eaten my 335's lunch.

Great power, I sense. In this one, the force is strong.

Well congratulations and "Welcome to the AMG Family".
I'm glad that you migrated from the dark side, and was enlightened about ///AMG
One note, be prepared to buy new rear tires in about 6 months I got 7200 miles out of mine, that I just replaced last Saturday

Welcome to the AMG family. I've been here a month or so for myself and I can say this community is really awesome (great source of information delivered in a respectful way... not the case sometimes on some forums!)

My break in period is almost over now (1250 km out of 1500!!). I will schedule for my oil chage in a couple of weeks!

Congrats on the beast... black on black is always a winner!
