Hey guys,

Hope your all enjoying the start of your long weekends.

After a little advice of I may pick your brains

I own a C63 AMG PPP+ car, yes it wonderful!! Love the noise (it's all about the noise with this car!!) and its a fabulous day to day super saloon! Cant fault it in anyway... BUT.

Don't get me wrong, it's luxurious, fast, pretty, full package! Now onto the but...

I've owned the car for just over a month. The drive home felt like I was piloting a rocket ship!! I had my stomach flipping at 7,500 tpm in 2nd, 3rd etc etc and felt it was stupidly fast!!
After a month-ish though, it's failing to give me the same buzz... Now I know you adjust to any car, but, didn't think I'd adjust to this that quickly!!

If I was to go on the quest of more power and that thrill again (again, don't get me wrong, I know 500 BHP, almost, should be enough for any roar car!) but what would you advise for a C63 AMG PPP+ to get that, sh*t yourself feeling every time you plant the loud pedal??

Any advice greatly recieved

Thank you chaps (And please, don't advise buying a GTR, lol)

You're on a dark path, that'll lead you to adding a hundred horsepower every time you recalibrate to speed.

If it's happened in just a month, well. You might want to skip the GTR and go straight to Veyron.

Drive a slower car for a week and the spark will come back!

I used to ride bikes so not a lot seems as fast as GSX-R1000.

Yeah guess it will lead me down a dark (very expensive!) path...

I like that, skip the GTR and go straight to the Veyron, lol.

Thanks for the replies gents

Tune and exhaust should fix that

simontrayler

What kind of rewards, BHP wise, are there to be reaped from a tune and exhaust on one of these out of interest...?
Also if I may, any ideas on the costings and where you'd recommend having the work done? (I'm in Hertfordshire)

Try driving with an eye patch, that will certainly increase the feeling of speed. Wow if on your first day of ownership you had the cohunas to touch the floor with the go pedal then either you are destined to be in F1 or being followed by a strange helicoptor in the sky, at least take it easy for your sake and that of others in the slow cars.

Driving with an eye patch on, lol. I'll go the whole hog and try driving with a parrot on one shoulder and a wooden leg too. Sure that'll help no end also, lol

First thing I did was switch into manual mode, flick off the traction and buckle. I'm a firm believer in a baptism of fire

As for F1, I'd love a go in one of those puppies!!

If you want the car to be more exciting, just put on narrower/less grippy tires on it.

I promise the car will be more involving with traction control off and burning out until fourth gear.

This isn't sarcasm.
