My C63!

Hi everyone, finally got a chance to snap some quick pictures of my new c63

Got it about 2 weeks ago, absolutely loving it! I've been following the hard break in style but leaving it in comfort. a couple of days ago I hit 900 miles so I decided i wanted to preview the sport mode. and WOW the car felt much better! at 988 miles now, cant wait to get 1000 and I think i will just come to a complete stop where ever I hit 1000 miles and do a race start haha.

anyways here are some pictures. I didnt get a chance to make many pictures since I was running a little late so I will post more later!





mind the bmw, its my buddies

anyways the car is a 2012 obsidian black sedan with
- mbtex/dinamica
- carbon fiber interior trim
- s32 with backup camera
- lighting package

I know its not too many options but i needed a car relatively soon and did not want to spend too much. Overall I am very happy with the car though, the engine is very addictive!

I have a question though, I noticed on cold rainy days my car has some moisture build up in the headlights. does anyone with a lighting package equipped car have that? i asked my dealer about it and they said if everything goes away then its fine

Also I will unfortunately be parking the car outdoors most of the time and so would like any tips on how to protect the paint from the sunlight?

Anyways thanks for checking out my thread! I look forward to learning more about modding this car

Yes
Dealers make me sick. No, condensation in the headlights is NOT normal on any car, not sure if it's a common problem in the 2012 or not.

There is a gap somewhere in the seal of the headlight. They can either pull apart and reseal or replace. Some states wouldn't pass inspection with headlights like that. It's not "ok if it goes away" unreal.

What Rory said, there should be no condensation buildup in the headlights. Get them to replace the headlight immediately.

Unbelieveable, yet such a common problem on these W204 models.

I can't believe the dealer told you it's normal. No it's not it's a head light not a fish tank. I hate how we spend a very large amount on these cars and they treat us worse than a KIA dealer.
