2009 C63 AMG Mars Red
New 09 Mars Red owner

Hi folks, I traded in a 2010 Evo X and decided to buy my first Mercedes and got an 09 C63 Mars Red

I absolutely love her! 27k miles and I believe I got a pretty good deal for her.

I would love some advice as to what upgrades people would recommend for the car? I'm a bit worried that the iPhone connection won't do anything it seems, maybe if i take it to a dealer and have them set something up?

also, I absolutely love the stock sound of the exhaust, but would anyone recommend the Agency power exhaust? any and all information would help! thanks !

We frown on M3 forum members invading these pages.

Welcome and get that exhaust ASAP.

Beautiful! I always loved this color on the C63, I just traded in my 2010 Evo X for an 2009 C63 a month ago, definitely a different beast.

I believe you can get an adapter from the dealer or online so your iPhone, new iPod will work?

I recently saw the Agency power exhaust vid on youtube and liked the front spoiler on there, any recommendations on those?

Plenty of good tunes out there. My vote would be to contact Cory from Kleemann USA. I think I saw a thread about them running a tuning special.

Congrats man, I'm sure you will love MB and especially this lil devil.

You can start by modding power ( tune,headers etc ), or even looks ( some CF kit ).

You just reminded me of my first sight when I saw/bought this car, it was just like that.

Welcome on the forum.

I don't personally recommend MHP. I was a previous customer of MHP.

I don't like to talk bad about a business, and I certainly don't have anything good to say.

Anyway, you do what you find is best for yourself and your car and good luck.
