2013 Nissan GT-R BE
Half way into the club

Hi guys, I am pretty much a stealth member here for about a year and a half, and recently I was able to find a C63 with the color combo I wanted (Capri Blue with Beige interior.) Currently I am about to close the deal and finally be able to officially join you guys!! However, my deployment won't end until December, so it will be a while before I can actually drive the car...

This really has been a full circle for me, as I have been researching for all the cars from 30k all the way to 150k, including E63 AMG, Mazda Speed 3, RX-8 (my old car), Lotus Evora, Nissan GT-R, Toyota FT-86, Subaru WRX-STI, Porsche Panarema, used Ferrari and Aston Martin, but of course the C63. In fact, the C63 was the very first car that I set my eyes on before the others. The GT-R came close with super performance, but the interior is just not there. I figure if I have better cash flow and want to do over, I will go for the Panamera Turbo, but for now the C63 will do just fine .

Needless to say I am excited. Wish me luck.

None from me for now, but you can go to cars.com and search for a 2010 C63 AMG in Capri Blue with Beige interior... is the only one in the US that I know of.

Yeah, I am keeping my options open. And if I decided to way a bit, the FT86 may be worth a look if I want a cheap ride.

Very true, and this is another reason why I picked the sleeper C63 instead of the GT-R. Attention in my line of work is not a good thing.

Maybe the definition of a sleeper in the USA is different to here in Australia lol

Well, I was referring to its performance compare to its class, as any kid in the world that like cars will able to tell what the heck a Nissan GT-R looks like. Oh here is a line to my car with pictures taken from the dealer.

Edit: upload the dealers pics to my Picasa in case cars.com de-listed my car.
