C63 coupe
Picked it up, Pics and impressions

Well, I picked the car up yesterday.
12, c63 coupe
Couldn't get rid of my smile all day!
Coming from a b8 s4
Impressions:
This car feels more alive. A lot easier to drive slowly than the Audi was. Don't get me wrong I loved and still love the s4, fantastic car. The C just feels very solid. I can't say anything about performance as I'm still breaking the baby in.
As far as comfort, bar none probably the best in it's class though.

Excuse my photos as I took them from my phone, I stopped at the Audi dealer on the way to work this morning and took some shots in the parking lot
The others are from when it was at the dealer

Car Build:
Black
Burl Walnut Wood
Keyless Go
MultiMedia Package
Classic Red Nappa Leather Package
Lighting Package
Lane Tracking Package
Limited Slip Differential

By the way, that's not a nick in the wheel. It's the stupid residue from that sticker they put on it. I'll make sure to get that off I can't believe hot dirty the car got in 1 day!

Congratulations. The car looks great. Looks like you are in the New York Tri-State Area, maybe we will run into each other one day on the LIE. Enjoy the beast!

It looks wicked! I highly recommend swapping out the orange side markers for some painted black ones from evosport... you won't regret it!

Cars.
Congrats! Enjoy in good health!

P.S. I wish the LSD came standard with the P31 pack like it did back in 09 AT LEAST.

It should be standard and so should Xenon lights on a car that costs 80k. Sorta retarded that it isn't.

Nice car. Sure looks like MB of Huntington to me. I sat in the car when I was ordering mine. Should be getting built this week. Loved your car but I had my mind set on white. Feel like you and I might be the only coupes in the area. Congrats.

It's not the same one. Funny thing is when I came to pick mine up I saw that one and laughed. I think it had different wood and mbrace (Wish I had mbrace)

I was thinking about getting white but my mother drives a white s550, father a white a8, sister a white e550. Granted I don't live with them but It's kind of annoying when I visit. I decided to stray from the pack . I LOVE the white on the c63 coupe though, really brings out the lines!

I sat in this C63 coupe at MB Huntington while it was in the show room. I was having my car serviced and couldnt resist sitting in it!

Beautiful car, I guess I cant sit in it and dream while my car is getting serviced anymore...
