Obviously there is no point in punching it in your c300/350. What do you guys do? Wave goodbye? Smile? Lol a C63 just tried to race me tonight. It had a beastly exhaust on it. Kudos to you sir!

Give them 
, while in the back of your head you think 'why me?' And continue your cruise as if you are not interested. And when they are not expecting it, you 'take off' and once they catch up, a second later, you just think to yourself "I had him there for a sec" and than they disappear

Depends, are you posing?
IMHO...Not to be mean but a lot C owners dress their car up to look like a c63 & then debadge their car and say they have one. It's good if your going for the look but otherwise I think it's lame to pose. I was at a benz club car meet and the c63 owners (AMG owners in general) tend to be douche bags and harass AMG look-a-likes even if your not trying to race or minding your business.

I have had a few people ask if I had a C63 - C classes on 18" wheels are not very common around here, and the 7 spokes are very rare. A lot of people don't know what it is if they are not car people - but it is part of the reason I have not debadged. I happy with it and could care less what others think, but I'd also not like to be lumped in with the posing douchebags out of ignorance.

Battery Replacement
Just curious if there is a common consensus on the best battery for the best price for the W204. I like original equipment, but I definitely would prefer to get a wear item for cheaper from a third party manufacturer. Plus the battery is covered in the engine bay anyway.

You do nothing. Look over and smile and continue as you were. Street racing is for the immature.

Of course if you are one that likes to challange C300/C350/C250 drivers to a race, then....
I just enjoy the ride and like the nice bit of sound my car makes running through the gears. If someone wants to pull on me in a C63, I would enjoy the sound and view and hope they don't get carried away and end up killing themselves or someone else. A nice jump off the light is fine but bombing through a neighborhood or busy area is for fools and idiots....and immature douche bags even.

It hasn't happened in my C350 Coupe 4MATIC. But what I would do is laugh, and how he's lucky I wasn't in my Procharged Z06.
