After much deliberation,i decided to pull the trigger on this beast.i could not pass this deal up.i want to thank all the forum members on here that do all the research and testing and their very informative posts.I've been reading the c63 section from day one,compiling info,knowing that some day i would acquire this beast.what a great feeling driving this car home. here are a few crappy phone pics for now.i could not take anything special cuz i had to get back to work.

congrats on the new addition--love the boat too!
We gotta do something about that garage my friend
Curious to see how you like the P30 suspension this winter.
Is yours a full P30 or the "P30 light" that was floating around?
More pics when you get a chance, IS is a great color would have been my second choice--I just have a thing for black Benzs

Love the 999 (classic!), the car and the pink jeep
Although I would choose Palladium Silver over Iridium, I am not the one judge you taste. Enjoy the car and don't leave that CLK forgotten somewhere in the backyard
