Picked up my 2010 C63 AMG

Ordered it back in August, finally arrived yesterday. Had already sold my winter car, so I would've been screwed if it didn't arrive by next week because we've been getting a crapload of snow.

A few quick pics that I shot.













Just got the winter tires slapped on today, ready for action!

haha ya, we got a nice dump of snow today. Forces me to take 'er easy during break-in. What's ironic is that this car will likely only see winter duty.

Thanks, just some quick sloppy shots I took. Hopefully there'll be some decent weather to take some real pics.

Did you get the performance package because your brakes look like you did? If so, how come you have the 18" rims and not the 19s?

I got every option available, premium package as well as performance package. There is no 19" wheel available in Canada apparently. 18's are fine, since it's my winter car, it's a lot easier sourcing 18" winters.

Hankook IceBear W300's. They're surprisingly good when it's dry. Worked awesome in the slush today.

Hang on, you're using the C63 as your dedicated winter car? Interesting...

I put the same tires you have (Hankook W300 Icebears) on my C63 last winter when we had that crazy snowstorm out here in Vancouver and while I didn't have a lot of problems, I would still prefer my S4 for regular winter duty.

By the way, you can get the Euro-spec 19" AMG wheels by ordering them through your dealership. Should be around C$5,500 without tires.

Enjoy your new ride.

Yea, I have a much faster car for the summer, and my last winter car (GTI) got boring so I replaced her with the C63 instead.

I like the Hankooks because they're terrific in the dry. We get quite a few cold dry days in our winters here, so it makes sense. You're right about the actual winter performance, it's OK, I'd say above average. But like I said, best winter tire in dry conditions.

I'm not a big fan of the Euro-spec 19" AMG wheels. Are there 19" versions of the stock 5 spoke wheels available?

You're not going to get any discounts in Calgary, especially on the C63. They weren't even giving out discounts to the 09's that were sitting on the floor. Everyone seems to pay MSRP. My car optioned out is a little over $80k + GST.
