Any higher mileage c63s?
Just out of curiosity, any of you guys up there in miles/km's? How do these motors/drivetrains hold up over time? I'm just noticing a lot of the cars around here are up around 50 to 60k km's on them, I've never bought a vehicle with more than about 30-40k on it and now I'm thinking if I buy a car with 60k it'll have 100, 120, 140 just in the next couple years. So just for ease of argument, anyone have over 100k MILES on their car? Still running just as strong? Any major problems?

I have 33k miles (roughly 53k km) on my 2009. It's running as strong as the day I picked it up!
TBH, it's all about having someone who knows these motors to service your car, and at regular intervals. I've see idiots who have gone years on end without changing their brake fluid because the dealership told them it wasn't a necessary maintenance. Complete BS. Problems arise because of the lack of servicing.
Sorry for my little rant.

154k (km) here.
Still running strong.
Still running strong.
I've had the car since December 2008. Since then:
I had my rear suspension replaced under warranty twice.
My mirrors were squeeking like crazy for the first 50k km.
My clutch died at 80'000km - replaced under warranty.
My DVD player does not work.
My automatic trunk lock does not close properly.
The keyless go on the rear left door does not work.
At 125k km my steering column was replaced, which is a quite common issue from what I've seen on MBWorld (https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...preciated.html)

It wasn't actually the entire column but the steering column lock.
The car just died, ignition did not work and it had to be towed away to the dealer.

I have 90k miles on mine..
Both rear lights have been replaced
Steering Column
fuel pumps (on two separate occasions about a year apart)
Fuel Rail
Fuel pressure sensor
Intake Manifold Gasket
Command Rotary knob
And yet I still love this damn car (granted all of that was under warranty).. but still, my feelings may change after the warranty expires and something breaks..

I just tuned 40k on my 08 and I am warrantied til 75k miles....I have had zero problems with it but I am thinking of trading it in before my 75k miles is up...got a deal on a XKR-S that I feel is a great tonne but I need to do more research on the car . I don't wanna wait til I have to have tons of things replaced on my C63 before I sell it.
