An AMG Family. A 2012 C63C and E63...

So after six BMW M cars, I made the switch to a C63 Coupe and there is no looking back. Got a chance over the weekend to wash both my car, and my father's E63. Figured I'd be a dork and snapped a couple of pics:

Looks great!

Really liking the contrast between the two cars (white and Black). You need to change out the side markers on your dad's e63 too lol

That E63 is beautiful! What a great color for that body style. You did a great job on the pics and the detailing. Also, where in NY are you located?

I know, I definitely have to get him the clear sidemarkers. I'll probably get them for him for father's day. What made me jump ship was literally just hearing the sound of his car from a cold start. What an amazing sound the exhaust makes. I had six BMWs and my father had five before we both made the switch. I was coming from a 2011 BMW M3 convertible and my new C63 is night and day better. I love everything about this car more. Not even a fair comparison in my opinion. Just the torque alone is nuts! I live in Brooklyn but those pictures were taken at our house in Long Island. Thanks for the compliments guys!

great looking cars, love them both!

I'm assuming you have taken the E63 for a spin or two... how would you compare it to the C63 in terms of handling, acceleration, comfort, etc?

I am currently driving a 2011 P31 C63 and in two years will likely move up to the E63 as my kids enter the teenage years and I'll need to make more room for them in the backseat. I'm reluctant to go bigger because I love the nimbleness of the smaller cars (at close to 4,000 lbs I realize nimbleness is a relative term), but I'm pretty sure I'm going to need the extra space the E63 offers.

Would appreciate your thoughts... thanks!
