Exclamation Review C63 P31 package = Awesome!

I just read the review of the C63 P31 package in this months Auto Eclectic Magazine HERE starts on page 44.

It also has an awesome link to a exhaust clip and an on track review later in the magazine.

After reading this I am now looking at a C63 with the P31 package new over a flashed pre-owned C63.

What do you guys think, is it worth the 4k+?

What country of residence? Imo, I think it's worth it because of performance gains with warranty in tack. Like a ready to play toy without installations or setups, epic right from the box.

I love my P31 pkg for all of the reasons you mentioned, plus it adds to the car's sporty looks.
Goodluck--

Kmergod, when does yours arrive? Soon right?

The article was great and it makes me want one even more. I'll wait and see what the facelifted one brings to the table though..

Thank you for this post - it is a good review that for once does not make pointless comparisons. I am not sure about the tyre size criticism, however - I think this might be a country-specific matter?

I have the P31 with LSD (Hong Kong delivery) and it is a very capable combination. The only problem here is finding a road to test out the limits of the car!
