Question CK35 -> C63 AMG

Someone offered to buy my C350 basically for what I paid for it 4 months ago, and I've been debating moving up to the AMG.. but all said and done I would throw another $28g into upgrading it and getting the interior done in Brabus.. while I've only got $7g left on upgrading my current car... I would have to throw away about $10g in upgrades I've already done. So the question is, would you throw $38g at upgrading from a new C350 with Carlsson tuning for a C63 AMG with Brabus interior?

I've only seen one Carlsson interior and I really wasn't that impressed. I was going to get the Brabus interior without any badging.

Developed in motor racing for absolute reliability and superior performance, the CK35 kits give customers the assurance that they, too, could win races with this engine. The Carlsson unit produces 217 kW / 295 bhp and presses maximum torque of 385 Nm onto the crankshaft.

I probably would have bought the C63 AMG had I drove it before buying. The dealership gave me a CLS AMG as a test drive, and I liked the sportier feel of the C class. I'm just going to keep this one, and once I finish my graduate work I'll pick up an SLK AMG.

I just got off the phone with the Carlsson sales director. They are preparing a quote for me to get the interior work done through them, but they outsource their interior work. I do realize this makes a bit more sense for continuity, so I think I'll reconsider this but from their own words.. Carlsson does performance tuning, aerodynamics, and wheels 95% of the time. Brabus on the other hand does interior work 90% of the time.
