Awesome! Yes, Pulley please!!! What was up with the tranny?
Better check for Valeo radiator, and leaking transmission Oring seals where the connector goes in. If your trans fluid is low, it's going somewhere.
You want to keep that baby alive so very rare!!!

You'll want these right away! Pink tails lights noooooooo!

And you'll find the mattig grill there too.
Thanks for the tails link

Im thinking to keep OEM with the original tails and headlights for the moment.

I dont like to update a model that was made that way. Lets keep it the most OEM as possible for a while.

I think the updated lights would be a great mod. I would keep the lights oem however. If it was me I would deff give the c32 coupe the better MBZ OEM lights. Thats my opinion. Bix FTW

..well today was the trackday in a track near Lima.
The guys who organize this events put me in the G1 Class, so i was with the fastest cars.

My best time was 1.11.550 (i uploaded the wrong pic!). The car is the number 10!


The best times car was a Seat Leon Cupra modified and the other one were (2) Porsche 911S, (2) BMW M3 2011, (3 or 4) Seat Leon Cupra with tons of mods (1) Mitsubishi EVO 8 and my stock C32 AMG

Well next time i will go with my Eurocharged Performance package!

Great find and awesome car. I hope you carefully document every inch of it with pictures for those of us that will never get to see on in person.

For me, I would just love to see close ups of the rear spoiler, how they did the exhaust (especially underneath), and all the little changes they made.

That thing had to turn some heads at the track!!

The coupe looked stunning! Dont change the paintjob, instead wrap it up with a full body sticker like mine, if i were you i wouldnt dare to change the genuine aspect of the car... Were talking about THE C32 AMG here Bro!

Nice pictures! Good to hear that you decided to utilize the car to its full performance, instead of putting it in the garage.

My suggestion for performance would be Dual CAI, one step colder plugs and wires, and headers in that order. Maybe throw in Intercooler Isolation kit as well.

In the intake department i only changed the air filters to K&N. Im thinking in getting the SL55 intake splitter, but i never heard about a Dual Cold Air Intake for the C32 AMG engine. Can you send me the link?

Colder Plugs and wires -) Brand and model information please!

About the headers let me think about it this because those babies are expensive!

Great car, great thread! Good to see her go to an enthusiast.

Would love to see some 1/4 miles/traps on this beast.

I wonder if it had any special tuning from AMG?
Would be nice to dyno before all these mods/aftermarket tuning.

I built a custom dcai here: https://mbworld.org/forums/c32-amg-c...lks-doing.html

I am very happy with it and might have a dyno comparison soon. I think needswings sells the one step colder plugs (NGK). I would stick with oem wires.

I just bought back my former C32 AMG Sportcoupe...

After 8 Years and 1,196km (747 miles) later is back in my garage. Now is time to fix some little problems and its back on his glory.
