CK35 -> C63 AMG

Someone offered to buy my car for what I basically paid for it 4 months ago, and I've been debating moving up to the AMG.. but all said and done I would throw another $28g into upgrading it to AMG with options and getting the interior done in Brabus.. while I've only got $7g left on upgrading my current car... I would have to throw away about $10g in upgrades I've already done. So the question is, would you throw $38g at upgrading from a new C350 with Carlsson tuning for a C63 AMG with Brabus interior?

You rarely get your money out of modifications when you sell a car. That's a difficult choice, but you will never have a car performance tuned as well as one that is done at the factory.

I think I'll pass.. I'm going to do a few more mods and just be happy with what I've got.
