Car arrived - 2013 C63 Polar White

UPDATE:

Finally picked it up a few days ago.



Hey everyone,

I am soon to be a new owner of a 2013 C63 and just wanted to say Hi and thank you for the great amount of information on this site.

Thanks to this site and you guys, I got to know exactly what I absolutely wanted and would not settle without (as far as options) on the car.

I'm super excited and should have the car by next week. Can't wait...







2013 C63 Sedan:
  • Polar White
  • AMG Illuminated Door Sills
  • Rear side airbags
  • Lighting Package
  • Multimedia Package
  • LSD
  • Keyless-Go
  • Driver Assistance Package

I went with the Coupe and these options:

Polar White (considered Diamond preferred the contrast of polar)
Red/Blk interior
Keyless Go
Multimedia
Lighting Pkg
Drivers Assistance pkg (I'm a gadget freak!)
Twin-spoke wheels

I plan on replacing the aluminum trim with aftermarket carbon for the dash and doors, like OEM but cheaper. Also looking at carbon mirror covers...and matte black v-spoke wheels if I can get my hands on some. Gary@Suvneer sells a carbon trunk lid spoiler that looks like OEM, so I think i'll pick that up as well. Basically it'll look like the promo pics you see everywhere:

Love the stance of the coupe. I was wondering if I could change the interior trim also. I don't like the 18s but there were no other options so I have to go aftermarket 19s. I love the Vossen VVSCV3 wheels.

I did. I just sold it. It was an amazing car, great daily driver, but didn't feel as connected to the road with it as much.

great choices guys. I love the Vossen concave wheels as well. I forget the model, but there was an absolutely gorgeous set of Vossen multispoke deep concave wheels on a c63 or c63bs in a pic posted by Vossen on this site...I don't think they have been released yet though.

Initially, getting some 19" VVSCV3 wheels and tires if I find a good deal, a moderate drop to close some wheel/fender gap, a tune (undecided on which tuner).

Any specials you can get me on 19" VVSCV3s?

How much do these CV3s go for over there in a 19"?

I just got a reply that they don't make them for our C63s. Very confused!

That's funny - I've seen them on a C63 over there. Perhaps it had wheel adapters?

I got the CV3 style over here in matte black but really wanted the polished set (unfortunately that was only 8.5" all round instead of these with an 8.5 and 9.5 on the rear.

Good luck!

I also was looking to buy one last year, but decided to go with the C63 after one test drive. Definetely different animals. C63 was way more fun to drive.

Congratulations!

Indeed. The S4 was nice and a bit more comfortable than C63... and I don't miss that

That's why I wanted them. Too bad they are not fitting.
