Im just messing around... I really dont care. I do think its comical though to put a 10lb motor in a car to shut a 28lb lid.
i will agree with you on that

Dude, you seriously have some issues. Everyone is a "fcking dumbass or fcking idiot" in your comments, or just randomly typing out a sporadic FU. You're acting like a real brat. If you don't have anything productive/nice to say, just stfu and get on with your day, ok?

I never said it was a "Race Car" please point out where I did. But I do know full well what a race car is as the C63 is not my only car. Maybe you should just stick to horses and dogs.

My comment makes perfect sense. You don't drive a C63 yet you are here and you proclaim to drive 2 Ferrari's. God bless the internet.

Maybe you should just stay there.

Again, dodged the question. I never said "The C63 is a race car" yet you say I did. Please point out where. My point was the lazy factor in putting in an auto lid close.
NOTHING to do with the C63 being a race car. Keep on grasping at straws.

The language barrier makes for people uncessarily being offended and the OP having to explain themselves....

Too funny...

Why is it that we American members on this forum always have to put the Jean Claude VanDamm types in thier place and tell them to relax already...?

Maybe it is a language barrier Zeph, you're right.

Read it again. The weight issue was putting a 10 pound motor into the C63 to close a 28 pound lid. It had nothing to do with me acting like its a race car. It just seemed a bit superfluous. Now take a deep breath.

I agree with you re: the C63, but I think people that buy the C class generally would opt for this as an option. Interesting question tho.

As said earlier, in europe we get it for 600. I guess they just don't do it for NA (maybe they do market research on this forum....)

yeah, you gave me a new word, thanks.
Now try to speak and write 5 languages (at the level) that I can, let's see who's funny

Saving weight is important, but a C63 isn't even a sportscar, don't misunderstand me here, it is a nice "sporty" car, huge diff, so it CAN have some extra pounds, there will be NO difference.
I'm looking for the BS, and there it is important for me to save alot of weight !! (and I'm not speaking of 10 pounds when I mean saving weight)

Ummm no.

If you can turn a steering wheel, you can close the damn trunk.

I can speak and write in 3. You win!

You keep misunderstanding me. Its not about adding the weight. 10lb's is nothing and it would be in the back anyhow so it would help traction anyhow. My point is or was that it is like using a crane to lift a pillow. Its overkill and not neccessary. Just my opinion, but I really dont see any function in it other than something else to break.

I have a Buick Enclave. Since it holds a lot of cargo and I use it for that purpose I tend to have my hands full as I approach it. The lid is heavy to lift without the auto and having the auto is nice so I dont have to put down what im carrying. Its also a kid transport so me or the wife has at least 1 kid in tow so the function makes sense on that vehicle.

The lid still pops open anyhow and flips up on the C63 so were really talking about closing it and the effort to close it is as much as it would be to press the button to close it.

Just my little opinion. Isnt that what this forum is for? Or should we all just agree on everything?
