Hi all - picking up my 2009 C63 on Friday!

After a number of years in the world of BMW M cars, I have decided to broaden my horizons with a black 2009 (fully loaded) C63 which I will drive away from the dealer on Friday. I'm excited...I think I am going to like this car as much as any other that I have owned to date. I have a lot to learn about M-B and AMG and look forward to that voyage. Give me a few weeks and I'll have a few things to talk about here!

The best thing you can do to start enjoying is to straight up peel out of the dealer! J/K Enjoy your new baby!

Thanks! The car has all options including CF and of course, the most important, Performance Package. The number of '09's with the latter seem to be few and far between, so the time was now since I was not buying a C63 w/o it. My deal was very good, not as good as some that have been posted here, but then I told the dealer I didn't want to haggle and for them to give it their best shot if they wanted to move the car and I would say yes or no then and there. So, I'm happy with the deal and particularly with the courtesy and professionalism with which I was treated.

Got it this afternoon...I LOVE this car! It is a great piece of engineering and the build quality is spot on...I really can't think of one thing I don't care for or would even quibble about...except perhaps the fact that in 100 miles I used exactly a half tank of gas. I am an AMG convert!
