Some questions before I pick up a C63?
Hi guys! Been a longtime forum member, currently have a 2005 E55. I'm planning on picking up a low mileage C63 by the end of June. I have some questions regarding this car that I would like to ask all you C gurus.
Is it hard to find a car in Steel Gray? I don't see many when browsing autotrader, dealerships etc. Seems like palladium, white and black are the most common.
Also, are the stock 18's in pretty good demand? I'm planning on swapping to a set of 19 hre's or any other forged wheels asap, but don't know if anyone wants to buy the stockies and what price.
THanks for your replies! Looking forward to the new C!

Shouldn't be too hard to find an example in Steel Grey. Quite a few of us here on the forum have the C63 in this color.
As for the wheels, I'm not sure how much demand there is for the stock 18s.

It took me 6 months to find what I wanted (grey/ash) but I think it was the ash interior that made it very difficult. I alos wanted a CPO. Let's hope you get lucky.
I do not know where you live but here's one with black interior

I have been thinking about buying some different wheels and it seems like there is a fair amount of interest in buying our stock 18's from all the other posts that I have seen. Be sure to get the car YOU really want. Good luck...
