Picked up my favourite car of all time!!









C300 on the left, C63 on the right.



The first mod I did was swapping out the tail lights from old car C300 is a nice car and drives nice but C63 is a completely beast!

Lucky guy! Snowmuch did you have to put your secondary cats back on before trading in. Also is the secondary cats the one right before the resonator, I did the Xpipe mod but want more sound, was there any drone in the cabin as of now with the xpipe there is none and I'd like to keep it that way. Thx

I didnt put it back...too lazy. The 2nd cat is also called downpipe so youre right about the location. There is absolutely no drone and I love this setup very much (xpipe+no 2nd cat)

Prepare your wallet about this gas guzzler beast! It takes me $60 to fill up the tank and it usually last my c300 a week. This beast eats up half a tank in two days...If I get some sort of rewards card from gas station I'll be flying over the world for free next year.

congratulations! Enjoy and be safe. They do love to drink up the gas as they eat the rear tires as snacks.

yeah! mine (v3) starts flickering after 1.5 years
but that is consider durable enough as i stays in tropical country
true that rear plate takes time to change bulb but for the look ya...

Azn v4 is awesome...looking at the design gives me confident that it would last longer and brighter...

Off topic guys but the v4 8000k shouldn't they be blue since it's 8k? They look so white.

funnything is that I had a 1hr each way commute a couple years ago (approx 100km each way) and my C63 had roughly the same gas mileage as my wifes glk. cruise control on at 110km/h the whole way... was surprising



@snowmuch

congrats man... she's a beauty. the jump from a normal w204 to the c63 is night and day. There is just so much personality in this car. Still gives me a huge grin everytime I start her up in the morning or just playing around in the snow.

I'm biased but I think black is the best colour for the c63... make the wheels bronze and be my twin in Calgary haha

here are some mod ideas for you
