'13 C63 Sedan
New owner/member!
Hey guys! I guess I'm now a new member to the c63 club. I'm located near Los Angeles, CA
I've been lurking the forums for a while now before deciding on pulling the trigger on a 2013 c63 Sedan. Edition 507 was a little too expensive for me
But..... I did get a car (5000 miles used) with every option, minus carbon fiber trim: MSRP 82XXX, for 61.5K sticker! I was fairly happy about that.
Actually... not a 100% sure if my deal was really good or not lol.
I will be slowly modding the car as time passes. I shouldn't have much trouble with warranty because my family is actually very close friends with the owner of a certain Mercedes dealership! I've seen quite a few beautifully modded c63s on this forum... I really hope to make mine just as nice.
Nice to meet you guys!

Oh I'd be interested definitely. I was looking for a CF diffuser (aggressive with big fins) and a front lip for now... as well as interior parts. Do you have awesome interior CF goodies as well?

Welcome!!
And yes, tuning IS worth it on a P31 car. The tune works well on all cars, regardless of how it's optioned. A tune essentially negates a delimiter and improves shift points and mapping. It will definitely help your cars performance.

Oh I didnt know that! I just read everywhere that a non p31 tuned is = to p31 non tuned. I didnt know people still tuned up p31 c63s... but then im assuming that the tuning for p31 cars wont yield too much of a gain in power ? maybe like 20 hp? hmm

Hm... I read somewhere that the BS, p31 c63, and the 507 are all very very similar in terms of stock HP/Torque. Merc was just playing with numbers for marketing purposes or something..?
But yeah, the only thing I'm wondering is... will a tuned p31 c63 have more power than a tuned non p31 c63?? I'm not too familiar with tuning :/

Too many things to do with the car... not enough $$$$$! thinking about wheels and exterior parts first before messing with the internal stuff. It's already a p31, so I don't have to worry TOO much about more power yet

I'm contemplating as well, will be definitley getting a tune for next summer, leaning towards oe tune with the flash loader. Will come in handy with the race gas tune for days at the drag strip!
