Scratch the ipe exhaust and go with mhp v2 or Lbh headers with x pipe and factory mufflers.

You won't need the tranny, the MCT seems to be holding well. Catch can and trunk ice tank are also necessary.

I've found this forum to be quite "nice" and nonjudgmental, as compared to other car forums.

I think what put some members off is how you delivered your message - 'ya gotta ease into it more…
Don't just say you want a 2013 for $30K!

edwardsflight33

I'm pretty sure he mentioned $30k because of the early responses on how he will buy a car then instantly put the same amount of money into mods. He is most likely planning on spending $30,000 in mods based on his current research. He was being sarcastic when he said show him a C63 for $30k. Based on his understanding of mods I'm sure he has a more realistic idea of what an actual purchase price will be.

Not sure why y'all hating so early on him. He laid out his plans with actual products and a potential shop and asked for input/validation.

You guys do understand that with a new generation coming out new material and content will be increasingly rare, right? There won't be any reason to continue to come back if the second post of every thread is a non-productive response telling the OP to do a search. Taking a lesson from "Bambi" and if you don't have anything constructive to say then STFU and don't respond. If you get annoyed repeating yourself let somebody else respond.

Eventually (and sooner than later) there will be no new content just new members new to the w204 and the only point of the forum will be social interaction with like-vehicled individuals probably talking about the same stuff over and over. Disappointed in a lot of you with your responses. I understand others of talked a big talk but never showed anything but the OP may or may not be like that and should be considered innocent until proven guilty. Rant over

And to OP, Greencastle area.

i like the sound with MPH V2's but i also like the idea of being able to go from "quiet" to stupid loud with the push of a button.

the trunk tank is critical only if you're on the track correct? i see that you daily your C63, but do you fill that tank up everyday?

i'm also aware that i will need a catch can, just seemed too small of a mod in my opinion to list. thanks for the input.

cjpoore

exactly. I wonder if Mr. Iqbal is on here, and if everyone gave him **** for buying a 507 at age 19.

Merc63

You can go from quiet to loud, just use the throttle accordingly. Headers are only loud when you step on it.

The trunk tank is necessary to give you another 10 or more litres of cooling capacity. You use ice only at the track.

Cool, I'm 25. Bought a house at 22 and have had 2 c63's, a 911 turbo, and an rs4 (as well as some other daily's). I'm not saying younger guys shouldn't own cars like this nor am I ragging on anyone. I'm just saying the original post was written like a highly ambitious 21 year old me.

If I could, I would go back and invest some of the money I spent on cars and such so that when I was 40 I could buy real cars.

If you're spending all that money then I recommend the ice tank. You don't have to fill it every single day. But if you have a few minutes before you take the car out and know you're going to get on it then it isn't the worst idea to get not more power, but just longer duration of power.

Anyway, hope you didn't take my posts as me ragging on you. But as I said before you sound like a younger ambitious version of me. Why don't you start off by getting the car first and go from there. A lot of us can really be great help from then on.

no the one to the left, would be cool to be a doughnut too i guess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

unruin

You seem to have a pretty cool head on your shoulders. Gotta give you that much.

That doesn't mean I'll stop ragging on you. It just means that you have earned a little bit of my respect, donut.

Good luck in your car search. I recently came from an M3 and I find my C63 is much more fun to drive.

"Earned a little of my respect"

GTFO Troll, no one gives a **** if you respect them or not.

The C63 forum is so full of themselfs...we drive C63's not fuking S65's/G65's you cocky losers. Get off that little bull**** highhorse and check yourself because when you goto the MB dealer, they'll check you in as "Commoner" exactly what the C stands for on the back of our cars.

OP-
Waiting for the summer is a good idea once the W205 C63s hit the streets and become popular, the W204s are going to drop in price significantly by the end of the summer/Fall this year.

I don't think it's far fetched to say the 2012-2013 W204s can be bought for mid $30s. Hell, at auction they're already selling for very low $40s!


Good luck with your search.

unruin

Oh, geez.

I hope this doesn't turn into another thread about how avery supported his family since he was 16. I'd rather hear about how donut will treat his hemorrhoids when he's 65 than about this clown.

avery.whss

nope but i find it hilarious how you think people give a rats *** if you respect them or not...get over yourself you little ego filled boy we drive c-classes not 300SL's

And hey being a clown obviously pays better then whatever prestigious "career" you have. Don't be so salty bro

you're just mad i ain't a push over b!tch human who will bow down to you...get over yourself airhead

unruin

I'm more upset over your inability to use grammar. Although, I am glad to see your spelling has improved.

avery.whss

I've gone ahead and linked you, Make sure when you book the appointment you tell them you need to get your ego checked out. If you need anymore help finding a better hospital let me know, I'm sure you can only afford the community one (even though it's free) but I don't mind helping people out.

Sidv22

I am a little sad after reading that.

unruin

I disagree. I don't think we'll see a $30k 2012-2013 C63 with less than 60k miles for at least 24 months.

Phorte

hmmmm with the pricing of C63's in australia, the attitude/image of C63 owner's is MUCH much different... the feels when i see how much they go for over there

ArmoE55

I never said $30K. I said mid $30s. Even 3-5 grand is a big difference in the depreciation world.

Case in point, there was one at auction that just sold in Destin, FL last week.. 2012 with 44K miles for $39K. VERY clean car, too.

I'm willing to bet this time next year, low $30s. Mark my words.

unruin

I recognize that. The OP said $30k and that number is much more specific/defined than "mid 30's" hence my statement.

e92 M3's haven't hit the $30k mark yet that includes 2008's. You will start seeing the prices of high mileage C63's fall but I still stand by my comment that it'll be a while before FL C63's hit that range - auction cars excluded.

cjpoore

I understand I won't be finding one for 30k, the one I'm looking at currently is 57. y'all go off topic too easy.

Get your car and let's discuss charging together, I'm very interested in stage 2 and have similar questions especially mechanical work in my area. What type of car are you looking at? What's you color preference?
