Smile New '09 in Seattle area dealership

Yesterday I took my '08 C63 into the dealership in Lynnwood, WA for its initial courtesy service. There was a white over black '09 C63 on their floor. No second sticker. MSRP $65,160. All options on the car except PP. If you want it, go for it!

The Lynnwood dealer changed my dif fluid (recommended in the service manual) and also did a free oil change (at 1700 miles). They sold me their first C63 at MSRP and did these initial fluid changes at no charge. So, I have no complaints.

I followed the break-in guidelines as I intend to keep the car long term. During the break-in period, I was able to get 22 mpg on the road with AC on and cruising at or modestly above speed limits. Also, I noted that the car burned 2 qt's of oil during the 1700 miles. Many others have had this happen to them. My experience so far is no leaks, rattles, warranty issues, etc. So far, so good.

Next week I'm off to Monterey for the historic races, concourso italiano, and auction at the Double Tree. Life is good

CLK 500(Gone), C63 FTW!
Hey, Did I saw your car back *maybe* on Wednesday in Pacific Place parking lot in Down Town? Black C63, without tint?? just curious though...I know another Black C63 is driven by Phill Smart Jr. Him self, other in Bellevue Silver color (not sure), and the other is mine with White color.

Any future mods??

PS : I always love the exhaust note when inside the parking lot

No, mine is silver and I don't spend much time in the urban core or suburban areas. I live on the Peninsula. No plans for mod's at this time. I'm just enjoying it stock.
