The placement of "C63" is way too close and fabricated.

no more AMG
With the amount he spent on all the upgrades, he probably would have been better off just buying a C63 instead.

C63
that would fool me if i saw him on the highway. it will give out as soon as it's stationary.

i wonder why doesn't the owner just buy a "C63" instead of go through that much effort.

maybe we were all wrong. maybe it IS a real C63, but the owner is too cheap to replace C63 rotors and pads so he's got C300 rotors/pads instead. lol

No, like someone mentioned before C63s don't come with pano roof.

The car looks nice, badges are not. Why put all that effort in it and badge it something it's NOT? Fail.

Wow, thanks for posting this video... I was always curious to know how would the black roof look on a white C63 (although not a real C63 in the video, but still a good example)... loving it!! I'm definitely going to paint mine now.

Oh, that's interesting. I thought all C63s came with them. Didn't realize it was a xenon thing.

I actually had to replace my front end due to damage. And was thinking about going with the c63 front bumper and hood and such just because it was almost the same price. But I would have never badged it like that or anything. At the very most de-badge, but then your trying to make it into something its not. I was just looking for the aggressive hood. lol.

I think I'm going to let Mr. Nguyen put the black film on mine and see how I like it. Maybe even the matte finish. Won't look like pano but might be better because of the lack of sheen.

The other day a saw C300 with the quad AMG exhaust, C300 on one side and AMG on the other. I pulled up next to him thinking he just added the AMG exhaust and that's why he added AMG to the back, But he also added 6.3 on the side. Sometimes people to strange things???

You're lucky to live in CA... where I live, shops wants 200$can in labour to install the vinyl (+ the cost of the vinyl from Don). My bodyshop is only charging me 240$can to paint my roof... so I prefer to paint it for durability.

Despite ppl telling me it's easy to DIY the vinyl roof... I don't want to mess up & don't want to brake the antenna trying to remove it.
