C63 + $10-15k. What would you do?

I will be buying a C63. I am looking at Renntech, Kleeman, MHP, Brabus and Evosport engine upgrades. What would you add to a new C63 to "fine tune" it for aqnother $10-15k?

Thanks,

Lew

AMG C63
IF I had a C63 + $15k I wouldnt buy a C63. I would buy a Porsche Carrera C2S with the 3.8 and the auto tranny the PDK. that would be the killa combo. The C2S has almost the same HP that the GT3 does.

Got one (and keeping it). My 2 kids don't fit in the rear seat any more. I am 6'4" and have to put the driver's seat all the way back. The whole family fits in the C63, but not in a 911. Although you can get slightly used AMG Es and CLSs for this price, they are bigger, heavier and softer than I want. Even the M5 feels a little big. For me, the C63 is the perfect size for what I need (at least for the next couple of years). Just want to hop it up a bit.

I recommend:

MHP ECU tuning
Upgraded air filters
Aftermarket LSD (if no PP)
Wider rear tires

That should get you close, but sub $10K I believe.
