2012 C63 AMG Sedan
Proud New Owner!

Hello Everyone, just thought I would introduce myself.

I am the extremely proud new owner of a 2012 C63 Sedan

2012 C63 Sedan
Sapphire Grey Metallic
Black/Porcelian interior with Carbon Fiber trim
Parktronic
Keyless-Go
Illuminated Door Sills
Media Package
Lighting Package
Lane Tracking Package

I went from a 2002 Toyota Highlander to this beast of a car. I can't be happier so far and already started to make it my own.

Im glad that I found these forums and thanks to this I already have changed out the following:

Tinted windows (medium tint, nothing too dark)
Door pins to the AMG steel pins
Orange side markers to smoked ones
Hardwired a V1 detector.

The DIY threads here helped make all these changes extremely simple and saved me money by doing so. HOpe to learn from from all you folks here.

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome.

dokebi1221 the reason I went for the C63 was because I was shopping for either an M3 or a C63 (I have always been a car guy and wanted something both fast and luxorious). The M is getting long in the tooth at this point whereas they just refreshed the C63. That and it fits my personality a bit more than the M does.

Oh and pics coming soon.

Congrats! Can't wait to see some pictures! You are going to absolutely love it! I just broke 3k miles and still smile ear-to-ear while driving it. Also, you made the right decision. In coming from a 2011 E93 M3, I can tell you this car is night and day. A huge upgrade in my humble opinion...

(Same happened to me a long time ago.)
