Been waiting a long time to make this intro from Vancouver
Well after being on this site for a few years and following/wanting a C63 for equally as long, my time has finally come. I bought a friends 2011 white c63 performance package car today. As luck would have it after having a solid 2 months of early scorching summer weather here in Vancouver, it rained today. I was still able to get a hundred km's in before it started and borrowing the car for 24 hours the week before on a test drive. The car has a full headers back IPE valvetronic exhaust, k&n filter(s), and a local tune. It's the exact color I wanted and a great start, I already pulled off the plastidip'd emblems and I've got a few visual mods I want to add in mind like black roof, spacers, carbon goodies, etc and a eurocharged tune. I was always a bigger fan of the 5 star wheels but these black stock 19's are growing on me. Anyways, happy to finally be on board, don't mind all the questions I'm sure to have. 
Oh and fellow lower mainland guys, feel free to let me know any inside tips on where you find deals on tires, parts, maintenance items, etc.
I won't put up too many pics since the car will gradually be changing over the next few months but here she is:

Thanks guys!
I've been admiring your car for a couple years. I might have to pick your brain a bit about the CF parts at some point. I was planning on trying to make a straight trade for the five stars but I might have to keep these, they're growing on me. I just wish I knew which spacers would make them sit better.

Will do, I almost took the drive up to whistler the day I got it for lunch. what a great road that would be for the car.
We should definitely set up some kind of cruise though, I know there is another guy on the board with a a white c63 with a couple jl motoring pieces and an h pipe i think. Any more of us around?

We'd have to have a pretty tame cruise sadly or else the helicopter would be over heard in no time and we'd wake up to making the headlines. Our car scene is absolutely dead because of this. I'd be into a nice little cruise and maybe grab some coffee somewhere or something. Maybe rip up to squamish or Harrison one day here?

Looks like there is a few of us. I think lunch in Whistler would be fun, a great drive too. Lots of opportunity for pics as well. My friend just bought one of those dji drones so we can get some amazing footage. A weekday would be best when that road is fairly dead. We'll have to try and set something up in the near future here.
