A little Mule
No one has been able to explain to my satisfaction the C63 "active suspension" aside from the basic bs. (AMG has way too many departments within departments within departments)
In another hand as you know the C63 has very impressive high tech "gadgets" is just about engine and computers. I was told that cars for European markets don't have the same characteristics as the US version for example under steering, I for one have other concerns like the overall balance of the car, safety issues and what is height starting point for aftermarket shocks/coilovers, stock? I know for a fact BRABUS springs are stock, however they use a new coilover shock that adjusts to stock height (I'm sure someone is manufacturing for them) hence the very high price.

Do you know how the ride compares to an AMG with the PP package? Also, do you know how much of the camber gets messed up with these springs?
