Which race drivers &/or celebrities drive C63's?

One of the great things about this car is that it transcends its price tag. If you would normally drive a lower priced car you'd sell your soul to get it, but even if you could afford something 10 times it's price you might own one cos its just so damn fun. Its special. As a result we have all heard tell of Lewis Hamilton having one, and somewhere I even saw a couple of other drivers named. I personally think its pretty cool that I can have a car that can keep a guy like that entertained, especially when he could have just about any car on the planet.

So....who have you heard has one? Ive been told Schumacher has one. Anyone else ever seen or read anything to that effect?

not exactly C63's but Brittney Spears had a SL65 and Justin Beiber has been seen driving a non-AMG W212.

They brought it in to the shop cos they thought it was steering too far to the left.
