How often do you see C63s in your area?

I'm curious to know how often drivers on this forum see other C63s on the road.

I live in NYC and I was surprised to see just how few C63s there are on the road across the 5 boroughs. On average, I see about 3-5 E92 M3 coupes per week (never see any sedans) but have yet to see another C63 on the road while I'm driving. Hell, I've only had about 10 C63 sightings since the car debuted in 2008.

I'm sure part of it is because of our roads and winters but I must say it's nice to feel like I'm driving a relatively rare car.

I'm assuming guys in the warmer climates see our cars on the roads more often?

I'm from a small town in Nova Scotia, Canada.
I have only seen one Province wide about a year ago.
I believe there are only 3 in the whole province!

I live in the suburbs of Edmonton, Canada but work in the city. I see probably 2-3 C63's per week. Interestingly, I see a different M3 almost every day.

I have seen an early model in silver once around Cupertino, CA getting on State Route 85 or something and that's it.

I see around 2 to 3 C63's a week (same people most of the time though )
I see around 2 or 3 M3's everyday..

Granted, I live in the DC metro, and commute from MD through DC to VA.. around 40ish miles each way.. so I see alot of cars.

I see one everyday, exactly infront of my house coz my hot-female-cougar neighbor has a white one.

In the jungle of Los Angeles I see 1-2 C63s a week and one of them is FARESUAE!

hahahaha nice...I see a white one in my area every so often driven by a middle aged Asian woman...can't help but think she's a doctor/lawyers wife...though it could feasibly be her own, I can't imagine why she would have bought it (so far off the target demographic!)

First saw the car I asked the husband if his enjoying the new car and he just smiled kinda like pissed off (smirked)... bottom line its not his its his wife's car! I know the wife is an executive in a big company.

I've seen 4 different ones in the last year. I've seen the same white one a few times. I see many more M's & higher end AMG's (S, CL, SL) around here.

Careful. I have a close female friend who has an RS4 sedan (and a Boxster). Her favorite car is the RS4. She's as hard core an car enthusiast as can be. And a software engineer.

Its funny becuase I see alot of CL63's and SL63's in my area then C63's, I probably see a C63 once a month. There are alot of M3's roaming around though. I see those at least 8+ a month.

As a matter of fact I saw a Black C63 on my way to work today.

I'm sure they're out there...I don't dispute that women can be care enthusiasts, it's just not common...though I do wish there were more out there!
