Even Money

About 250 miles on the car. All stock, includes track package and performance media. No photoshopping, sony cybershot.

There will be more to follow for the car, mods, etc., just a few pics for now. I'll start a separate thread when it gets more specific.

Impression so far is that the car is nothing short of phenomenal. No comparison to the '09 C63 with LT headers that I sold. The engineers have nailed it with how the engine, transmission, and suspension work together, flawlessly. There will be some track time next spring, so a more comprehensive review then.

All these cars are freaking gorgeous. Ordering mine at the end of the week but cant decide on white or black... driving my self nuts!

Btw, whats with the absence of all the coupes on here?

@EvenMoney: Great looking Black series. On a side note, what are the chances that we both have the same engine builder here in the PNW? Here's me hoping that Tobias sneaked in some of that Black series magic in my C63 sedan.

Installed my new facelift-looking mirror caps on the pre facelift mirror holders yesterday

olszowa12

How is the fitment?
They look great I haven't noticed the difference about the shape of the mirror holders until now.

Can You post a link where You bought these?

Dome///AMG

The fitment is excenlent, and the price too

I bought them on ebay
CLICK

I just painted the caps in calcit-white and plasti-dipped the rest two pieces

olszowa12

Thanks for the link.
Which pieces did you paint with plasti-dip? The lower part of the covers?

Dome///AMG

The lower part and the frame for the mirror
Looks like OEM now

Roswell

Looks great Dome!!

BTW, how many mm spacers are u running on ur red wheels set-up? Any rubbing?

VaclavSV

Just a few pictures of recent for you guys!

ddcha

not feeling the VTEC stickers but nice car!

ZephyrAMG

Hahaha...you're killing me...

Nice pics though...

Dome///AMG

Thank you meng

I drive 10mm in the front and 12mm in the back.
Got a little rubbing in the front but I will make it fit

Roswell

I'm going to do ur opposite to be on the safe side of not rubbing.. 12mm front & 10mm rear.

After searching, it seems like ppl are using Xtended lugs 40mm, but I was told by a vendor H&R recommended 35mm with 10mm spacers.. Can u share what length u are running?

Thx in advance Dome.

SB...C63

Consider the fact that Black is VERY hard to keep looking clean.

noodleman

i would use 40mm Meng. stock bolts are 28mm, so adding 10mm would make the required bolt length to 38mm. even with the abs assembly in the rear 40mm bolts will clear it.

Roswell

Thx Jason, that's exactly what I wanted to hear.. The front was not my worry, it was the abs in the back.. But I had doubt about the 35mm being too short & 40mm being too long in the back.

noodleman

At worst you can just get a shop to file the 40mm bolt down to 38mm if you get really paranoid.

ChrisD63

Dome,
Are the ebay mirror caps smaller than your oem mirror caps?

Helms

Beautiful C63s Guys!

microcolt

Yea, I know but its just SOOOOO sexy in black!

Plus when you compare it to white it doesn't look to get as dirty as quickly (even though it does) but its definitely worth it!

Dome///AMG

@ meng
I used the bolts which came with the spacers, but I don't know how long they are

No, the size is the same because of the mirror glasses
But for me they look more smaller with the facelift-design

olszowa12

Meng, for 10mm spacers You need 40mm bolts.
For 15mm spacers, 45mm.
This is for the multispoke AMG wheels



New experience - the C63 is perfect for off-roading

noodleman

you're a brave man to take a slammed wagon off road! hahah
