Maybe this?. Let me know how you go. If it works I may get it.

Just received the mail the work shop, they have told me they just has no chance to test the system gonna work for 2012 model or not yet, but will test and update to me once they have done the test. Hopefully won't take too long.

Did you guys get the limited slip diff for your c63? Not sure if this is of any use if you don't take the car to the track.

Though about it for about a month. $5k for something a wasn't going to use.

Nup i'd didn't, spent my money on Keyless Go and changed the colour of my car to Diamond White. I think the dealer said only about 1 in 10 ordered a LSD.

For resale with it's nothing more.

It's up to you if you feel you would like one.

What Model and Spec are you thinking of?

Cheers

Marty

Maybe Grey with Keyless Go & PPack. Hesitant about LSD. Some say LSD is a must for such a powerful car....stop wheel slipping when going round corners & better handling etc but others say need to change oil regularly, noisy & useless if not tracking the car.

Yeh Jim, a long wait, and once we get it, still won't be able to let it loose for another few weeks until 1500kms. I chose the sedan, I have little ones to put in the back. No LSD, didn't even hear about it until here, but couldn't have stretched another 5k anyways

(a)'12 C63 P/P, LSD, 19" m/spoke,comfort pack. (b)Astra SRI.
Question

G'Day Guys, First Post.
We have a C63 on order:
Palladium.
Performance Package.
LSD
Comfort Pack--Keyless Go, Rear Blind etc.
Build Date is (was) 9/11, delivery said to be 9/1.
Have any of you guys who are now owners of the 2012 C63 with the revised dash, come across the "rattling dash" issue that I've seen mentioned on other parts of this forum?
Cheers, Pickles.

Hey Pickles. Think that is the same build date as mine.
ask your dealer if your car is on the TALISMAN Cargo Ship.
What State are you in and did you order Coupe or Sedan?

Cheers

Ha ha ha....Amazing......I've been "discovered"!!.........Yes, it is me.....but don't mention it on the LS1 Forum (and what a GREAT forum it is!), because they don't know what I'm doing!
Looking forward to learning HEAPS here.....just as I did on the LS1 Forum.
How do you find your C63?.......I haven't even driven one yet.....but wifey has......she has been the driving force behind this!
Cheers, Pickles.

I haven't noticed anything in mine.

Regarding your question about countries, you can identify which factory the car was built from the VIN. I believe all Aussie cars are from Germany.

Pickles there is a lot to learn about C63's and your going to love owning/driving one. I have owned several HSV GTO's and GTS's but an AMG is a whole new ball game.
This is my car with a few mods https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...coilovers.html

I looked at your car....AWESOME.
Yes, I've had a few V8s etc, the last being our VZ GTO, but AMG is in another world.....quite overwhelming actually.....so for sure, I have a MASSIVE amount to learn, as I actually know.....nothing!
