New Beast in the House!!

All,

My new (to me) 2010 arrived via car carrier from Florida. Has 20,000 miles, all options except Development Package, and is virtually new car pristine. I had to search to find any blemishes at all. I searched long and hard to find a white one with Keyless Go.

I've driven a C350, but never a C63. What an absolute blast! Far better than I expected in pretty much every way. Only issues so far are tight seat width, and I find it interesting that the climate control cannot be set so that the driver control will control both sides of interior (Canadian spec only)

Thanks to those of you answered some of my pre-purchase questions.

Joe

Congrats.

The car is a blast to drive.

Are you planning any mods?

Thanks!

Gonna need tires by summer and will likely move to 19s, hopefully HRE, H&R Springs, and maybe a tune.

Did a test with ESC turned off.... quite entertaining.

HRE makes great wheels, excellent choice. I've been contemplting
springs too but not really sure how it would affect the launching
characterisitics of the car since I drag race it on a regular basis.
If your just looking to drop the car for looks than the H&R springs
are the way to go.

As far as tunes; MHP, OE, Eurocharged, Kleeman, Powerchip etc....
all offer a significant increase in performance.

ESC off and street tires can be very entertaining to say the least.

Good luck and enjoy!
