C63
Newbie from Sydney
Hi Folks,

Just thought I'd join up and say hello. I've just ordered a C63 507 coupe due in September... very excited to say the least

After 2 weeks of shopping around I ended up purchasing from G Brothers. Absolute pleasure to deal with compared to a few others in NSW. Managed to secure one over the phone for a great price.

Anyway hope to be able to add my 2cents and catch-up with some Sydney-siders.

Cheers
Mike

Thanks mate !

Sorry to hear about the M5 mate ...
Which year model were you considering, I've driven the 5.5 and it's a torque monster I still prefer the sound from the older 6.3 though ...

Hi Mike, great news. I have been thinking about trading in the 2012 sedan I have for the 507. Had two prices from dealers but they don't seem too keen to "do a deal". I bought a CLK off Andrew at G Bros a few years ago, wonder if you would care to PM me the sort of deal you were offered so I can validate what I have been quoted.
