I had my C63 P31 delivered last weekend and as the truck lowered the car, my 6 yr old niece asks me, do all fast cars have red thing on brakes.

I was like yeah. So she steps into the garage and points to the GTO and the C63 and says "so these are fast cars, but I think you should paint those brakes on your bike to make it fast too."

lol

She's right, ya know. Red calipers add about 20HP

Questions

Did you end up paying for any of these citations based on sound?

They're right, but diarrhea has never sounded so good.

And it's true, a plain c coupe looks like an accord coupe from some angles. No biggie.

Not exactly full of words but I drive by this park every day where children are getting dropped off for camp or daycare... Today about 10 children stood at the edge of the street pointing at me then covered their ears as I floored it off the line!! It was pretty cute.

Happened to me more than once. "Whyd you get a purple car?!" About my barolo red c63, makes me rage.

Some kids in a 02 m3 " haha get that piece of **** c300 off the road". I then proceeded by beating him very badly in a race while his gf waved at me.

Old guy on my street "stop speeding by with that loud harley!"

Family friends grandpa riding shotgun during a 0-100 " I have finally lived!" Haha.

I was getting ready to start my car the other day when I saw my daughter and her 11 yr old friend walking up the driveway. I waited until they were about 20 ft behind the car and then fired it up (cold start). My daughters friend screamed and darted off of the driveway! I can now say that even parked, my car scares children away!

When I bought my P31, the car was parked inside the showroom right next to a SLS - ML63 - E63 - CLS63. All AMGs only inside the showroom.

As the manager opened the door, he told me: "watch this"

Fires up the car - and the motor barked gloriously. He didn't even rev it. It was just a cold start. Inside the showroom and this was at 11 in the morning. Couple people clapped and walked over to look at the car.

One gentleman, who was doing paperwork for the only white CLS63 available in California walked right onto me and my brother and said: "I absolutely love how that V8 snarls and oozes raw power. I wish Mercedes didn't suppress the exhaust note on the other 63s."

He was smiling ear to ear and had a SEG bigger than me.

Yeah, it is very quiet even at wot. We remove the resonators, but it is still quiet. Aftermarket exhausts don't add much noise either.

yesterday a guy in a s550 rolls his window down and says: you're killing it bro! and then he says we all know that you've got a v12, no need to go that fast !(referring to my fast acceleration from the previous light)

i had to explain him that the 6.3l (well 6.2l) is actually a N/A V8 and the CL65 is a V12TT

Gold.

Saw a guy at the carwash today in an S500 "AMG" asking about my Vorsteiner kit...I didn't have the heart to chide him on his badging.

Zeee_Q

I've gotten asked this a few times. "I thought you said your car was red"

Also as I go through a drive through and pick up my food, the person handing me my food asks if my car came with lamborghini doors.

"Is that a body kit"? (referring to the updated body styling on the black series)

"Was it an option not to have a clear coat ?" after looking at the paint (Magno Alanite Grey)

Are the top questions I get on my car........ (C63BS)

I let my future father in law drive my car and he kept stepping on the parking brake and trying to put the car into gear. I was like WTF are you doing? He's like I don't understand this stick shift how do I start the car?

CoolBDPhenom03

Not a phrase, but last night, I was on the bottom level of a parking garage meeting my cousin and her friends for some bowling. Apparently they'd all heard of my car so they wanted to hear me rev it. One kick up to 4k rpm and a group of teenaged girls about 30 feet away all shrieked. It was absolutely hilarious.

After sending my sis some pics, "What's the red stuff in the wheels"

I told her it was brake fertilizer...

Even my 6 yr old niece knows what that red stuff is...

Reviving this thread for kicks

A couple of weeks ago, I was pulling into an ice cream shop in Oakland and a guy standing outside was like, "Holy s***, what kind of engine is in that car? Your Mercedes sounds like a muscle car!"

Amg drive day a few months ago, one older guy in my group says during random conversation while we are waiting for our hot lap in a C63 with instructor, "I'm thinking about getting one of these but it's only a c class.
They strap us in, the instructor does his thing, we pull up they undo the harnesses, guy gets out rips his helmet off and throws up in pit lane.

Maybe a half hour goes by, same guy says to me so what do you drive, I look at him, smile and say just a c class!!

Jycke

A guy in a car on the other lane mouthing "WOOOOW..AMG" (there are basically no C63's in helsinki)

Awesome story

c63addix

yesterday my buddy's little brother: "I think my modded S2000 is faster than your c63, just wait till I learn how to shift"

CoolBDPhenom03

Sure...
