Guys I think every person is different, I could've handled a C63 when I was 16, but that's because i started driving my dads 250E MB WHEN I WAS 14 and by time I was 16 I was pretty good at driving, none the less the C63 is amazingly easy to drive I m kind of shocked and my gf is an excellent driver I have noticed lately!

20 year old with a C63 is stupid. Just a matter of time until its wrecked and his/her life is in danger. That car is a beast and inexperienced drivers will come across instances where its speed/power/braking will surprise the driver.

The only way im buying my son a car at 16 over 50K is if he has a scholarship to a college. Then I feel he has earned it and even then I would never put his life in danger by putting his inexperienced driving behind the wheel of a car he is not ready for.
he knows i speed . . . . but i do it in a safe way and im a safe driver. which he witnessed seeing my drive while i had my permit. and he told me to just go to a track where theres 2 close to where i am

Hey propane, I bet a 16 year old Lewis Hamilton or Shumacher were a safer and better driver than you are now. With that said they would be better than most people. So that kid you are criticizing might be able to school you at driving. PS propane the following isn't directed at you.

It's amazing how bitter and jealous old men can get about young people with fortunate lives.

Some members here think anyone under 20 MUST be spoiled and MUST be a bad driver. Have you ever met these other forum members to judge them at all? No, so be quiet. You might be old and rich enough to have a c63 but are **** poor morally.

Whenever this topic arises it seems some older members are stereotyping younger members and the younger members just defend themselves. What if the younger kids started using random stereotypical facts to criticize you older guys. 1 in 5 older men can't get it up? So if you are old you MUST be unable to get it up? Wow sucks to be you, sorry to hear that.

People of all ages use this forum for information about a great car. Just let them do that regardless of their age.

Its ProPain.

Im sure there are better drivers out there than me. No question about it. Ive been racing cars for 18 years. On the twisties, 1/4 mile and Rally. Im confident I would school this 16 year old in question at any venue.

That said, I think the young people miss the point and the reason you miss the point is BECAUSE of the point. Immaturity. 99% of all 16 year olds with silver spoons in their mouths with irresponsible parents putting them behind the wheel of a race car are immature. You could be the best driver in the world. Your immaturity will eventually make you do something stupid and dangerous for various reasons that a mature person of equal driving skill would think twice about.

The first point you miss out on is your parents have fortunate lives. Not you. You are simply along for the ride and reaping the benefits of it. Of course their good luck and fortune translates to you being fortunate and thats not a bad thing at all as far as getting the things you want. But the distinction is probably what the people who earned their fortune have a problem with. Fortunate young people have no idea what it means to work hard for a living or actually earn something. Again, its not a terrible thing if used properly by parents.

What kids are to immature to understand is that getting these things handed to you at a young age teaches you nothing about value. It just teaches you to hold out your hand and get what you want. Most rich kids turn out to have spoiled under productive lives when they get older. They never learned the most important life values and by the time they are thrown into the world its to late.

I also have no problem with a young kid owning a C63. I am a firm believer of Darwinism.

Discussing someones sex life or getting it up in relation to this discussion is far off base. What would be relative would be all old people drive slow and that's why they are better drivers or some crap. That would be a good defense next time someone gives a young kid a hard time on here.


In closing you don't have to be rich to own a C63. So stop thinking your parents are related to Donald Trump. Older people don't judge you for the money purchase. They judge your parents ability to raise children.

We picked up a screw in the tire somewhere around the city the other night. Do this cars have run-flats? Should i take it to the dealer or just local tire shop?

I find it very surprising that so many kids have gotten C63s. I am 16 and for my first car I got an 02 C240. My dad had an E55 while I had my permit and when I would even jokingly ask him if I could have it he would say that even if we were billionaires I could never have an AMG or anything with over 300hp. Since he sold his E55 he bought a new 2010 C300 with Dynamic Handling Package. As long as I get a scholarship to college for tennis I will be getting his C300. He works at the Mercedes dealer in town. He has been there almost 30 years and has never sold an AMG or anything like that to anyone for their kids. Never. My dad has said though that I can get whatever the current AMG C is when I graduate COLLEGE.
