My first Mercedes, a C63 sedan!
Hello all,
This morning I signed the papers and purchased a 12' c63 sedan. The c63 is white on black and has just about 32,000 miles. Price out the door, around 39k without tax. Coming from a 550i sedan, the AMG feels very stiff and the "feel of speed" is great.
The car came with what I believe are 20'' Luxury XO Wheels and am not too sure about how I feel about them. If any member has a set of OEM wheels please let me know!
There is no power package on the car so I will be looking into a flash for the car at some point next week. Any suggestions would be helpful.
The c63 has no accidents, nor paintwork and it is honestly in fantastic condition. Not a dent or scratch on the car. A car I hope to keep for a long time.
Just wanted to introduce myself on here,
Enjoy a few pictures,
Alexander

Welcome.
Here are some good looking OEMs: https://mbworld.org/forums/wheels-ti...els-cheap.html
Idk the seller, just remember the ad.
As for a flash... Go with Eurocharged (EC). Just find an EC thread on here and PM them to get the best price. If you go through the website you'd pay more. But they've been around forever and always get good reviews and praise for the customer service.
Can you count on 1 hand the number of issues you had with the 550i? Really good looking car, yours especially, but those things / motors can be a nightmare.

Thank you!
Thank you for the link, and I would need more than two hands to count all the issues with the 550 lol. The reason I got rid of it was because the adaptive suspension module went bad and ended up being a hefty bill from BMW. With the AMG, I hope to minimize the trips to the dealer.

Well, you won't experience that here. Stout car, minimal problems, especially the facelift. Just stay on top of maintenance (oil/fluid changes, brakes, normal stuff) and you'll be good.
Your only added expense may be rear tires. But I'm sure by now you know the reasoning behind that.
Enjoy!

Welcome and that's a very nice C63 buddy but am not a fan off the 20" wheels. As said before, EUROCHARGED is the only place for a tune on a C63 IMO. Health too enjoy

Haha on to using your toes to count the problems I see.

Welcome! I just happened to notice, but is the exhaust tips painted black? Looks very clean and well maintained though, I'm sure you will enjoy it. +1 for EC.
Also be sure to take a pic at the gas station, since it will be your new best friend soon

Thank you and nice!
Thanks!
Thank you and yes I believe they are painted. The car is quiet but the mufflers on the car look rather small. Maybe it is a aftermarket axleback? I will try and take a picture and post later.
And yes, I have already gone through a tank in less thank two days. Looking at smiles per gallon with this one.

Welcome to the forum, the facelift sedan looks the best!
Not a fan of the wheels at all, a little drop with some 19's will transform the look of ur car. :P
