C32 purchased

Hello all,
I made a post last week about a C32 I was looking at, but that deal didn't work out. I ended up buying this one. I'm looking into the evosport stage 1 kit, SL55 splitter and green filters. My friend and I are flying to Dallas later this week to pick it up.

Here is the listing with ~45 pictures:

This is my first AMG, and I am incredibly excited about it.
I'll be taking some pictures from the mini roadtrip back from Texas and post them when I return. Good to be a part of this forum now. Take care.

Also, my friend photoshopped the grill black, I think it looks great. I'll have to talk to our bodyshop about the cost.

Congrats!
We C32 owners are a minority here in Las Vegas. It's good to see you get it out of Tex. and into the LV.
What part of town do you live in? Maybe I'll see you around.

Haven't even picked it up and planning on modding already... HAHA. NICE! :p

Congrats!!! You're going to love the car! You'll have to hookup with Roseylv and I to take it to the track.

BTW - the car looks great and a appears to be a great price!

Keep us posted.

Hey for sure, I'm going to take a lot of pictures from the trip back to LV. When I am in LV, I stay with my dad. He has an apartment right by the strip. He runs the segway dealership in town, you guys will have to check those out. www.segwaylv.com

It would be awesome to go to the track with you guys. I want to see your cars too!

I leave tomorrow at about 12:45 for Dallas, pics when I return.

Hey everyone, my camera didn't arrive in time for the trip, but my friend had his phone with and took these pictures. Sorry if the quality isn't acceptable.

















The car is so amazing, I love it so much.

Did you paint the grille black or is it just photoshopped?

I actually did it the day after I returned. I took my time, and it came out nice. So far I haven't received anything but positive feedback on the grille. Hope the guys here like it. haha

Thinking about getting 30% tint all around pretty soon, the car gets really hot in the sun when parked.
