OK so figured I would introduce myself now that I picked up my 2009 C63 Performance Package with LSD. I am sure there are other packages to this car but not sure they're as important, except maybe the heated seats.

I want to thank the forum for my pre-sale searching you all have a bit of good information that got me through the head bolt failure. I actually broke the head bolt on a test drive at the local dealer. Now begins the quest to figure out what I need to "fix" aka how to unlock the potential of this thing.

OK so cut to the chase. This thing is immaculate and I am having a blast. After a few weeks I'll put up a comparison against some of the other cars I've driven including an E92 M3, E46 M3, Cobb Stage 2+ 135i track monster, and others I've driven.

Looks like you ended up buying that C63 from Austin dealership?
Welcome to the AMG world!!! As you said it's day and night vs BMW M3 stock to stock. It's the P30 which means you have the LSD maybe not the extra horsepower and the 2pcs rotors.
Enjoy the beast carefully!!

That alcantara look terrible after 49k miles.

Congrats and good luck with it

It does agreed. Has anyone had it redone?

Benz Star

That is the one from MB Austin. No extra horsepower and no red calipers.

I go to a driving school that is a 1.7 mile course in Austin. I'll likely take the car there and ease in to the full ESP off thing and learn where the limits are on this beast.

Congrats I have the very same spec. P30 it has an LSD and stiffer suspension. Great car enjoy it !

Just got back from a 100 miles drive and a quick stop at the dealer the fix the drivers window setting to automatically go up.

This car is so comfortable and so nuts at the same time I cant get over it...

This is the first time I've seen someone with the same engine builder as mine.

Just fantastic.

P.S. I love seeing the signature of the man who built the engine; shows pride of workmanship.
