Sorry as it is 204 is almost at the end of its production

As far as I know of 204 series production stops in few months as the 205 is to be released in the first half of 2014 (in Europe-sorry guys I live there)

So a colleague of mine in Germany showed me some pre launch photos-which I am terribly sorry but I just can't share yet! (may get fired ...just kidding...the truth is I don't have them...I saw them in his mobile phone)

Anyway I made a post (as always) in my blog
http://www.empowernetwork.com/weblin...?id=weblinking and I
gathered some videos from youtube there, which are really pretty close to reality.
Some of them might be absolutely real.You can check it out if you want

The bad thing is that I still havent bought this C63 coupe (damn) but I still got some chances in the next year (lets hope so)

Yeah :/ I'm gonna miss this W204 series. I'm working over the weekends now and during my breaks, and I'll probably work next summer too. I plan on selling my C63 a few weeks before the W205 comes out and use my truck for around 6 months. Then I should have enough cash for a slightly used pretty much stock one (might have to finance a bit of it), and I'll also know that there are no problems with the new model/they'll be fixed!


There's also a fair chance I might just keep this one a couple years, since it's still new to me and I love it!

why to sell it?
Just wait, as the 205 AMG will take over a year to be released after the first 205 models.....
If you were here in Greece you probably sell the car at 1/10 of its original value as the government has raised the taxes to fuel and cars over 1900cc so much, that no one buys any more.
You can buy a Cayenne for 10.000 euros or a c63 for less than 35.000euros and still none buys as they cant afford to use them

We shall see . There are still months and months left to wait. I might just keep my C63 for the next 10 years, even I have no idea what I'm going to do. Only time can tell .

W205
the coupe is introduced about 1 to 1.5 years after the sedan so they will not leave a 1 year gap in the coupe market with new bmw 4 series.
my dealer told me i had untill 2015 to order the current coupe
