M3 Owner making the switch to a C63 Edition1 coupe...

Hey there everyone. So I've been secretly lurking this forum for weeks now. My father just took delivery of a 2012 E63 last week. Literally all it took was one push of the start button and hear that engine to go and put a deposit down on a C63. The sound of it is intoxicating. I found myself a matte black Edition1 coupe which was sitting in the dealership for months. Pulled the trigger on it and am picking it up on Friday. Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself!
My current car:

My new car:

And my father's car:

Congrats! I love all those cars!

I bet the cab M3 is good since you hear the sound in a completely different way. Would be fun to testdrive the Brabus E cab 800.............

I swapped my M3 out on swapalease.com. And ironically my father had a 2010 X5 4.8 before swapping that out for the E63. He loves his AMG and I'm sure I will love mine as well! Can't wait!

nice cars man! how would you compare the handling of the c63 and the m3? and you should tune that e63 and beat pretty much anything on the road

Picking up the car tomorrow from MB of Southampton. Great guys there (so far)! I plan to write a comparison of the two once I've broken in the C63. After owning six M cars, this is my first AMG or Mercedes actually. I am joining the dark side, and from what I hear, there is no turning back!
