2012 C63 AMG Coupe P31 & 2003 E55 AMG Presidents Edition
Just picked up my first C63
Just wanted to introduce myself to MB world and the C63 family. I picked up a 2012 C63 AMG coupe with only 3K miles last night. Its black on black with AMG development package and lots of other goodies 
The car is in perfect condition looks like it just came off the showroom floor...Im in love!

2012 C63 AMG Coupe P31 & 2003 E55 AMG Presidents Edition
Pics will be coming at some point today. I do have a quick question tho...The data card I had pulled showed the P30 package, but I have the red brakes, alcantra steering wheel, carbon trunk spoiler. Any thoughts?

2010 C300, 2013 C63 AMG
Just on a side note about performance wise: from what I know about the two (differences):
P31 - forged pistons, lighter cranks.
P30 - LSD, track suspension.
Honestly if you got P31 you could just get coils and LSD from one of the vendors and have the best of both worlds, but if you don't want P31 I don't know what to say besides get the VIN run.
It could all be aftermarket though in your scenario, as those aren't the hardest things to swap out.

C63 coupe P31, '11 G37s, '12 RR Evoque Prestige '10 QX56
P31 is the AMG Development Pack (ie, performance bump, upgraded brakes, lightweight crankshaft, forged internals, etc).
I'm pretty sure you can't have the P30 on a coupe, it was offered in '10/'11 and early cars (in the US, not sure of elsewhere).
Congrats on capturing the beast.
Future mod list?

I told myself I wouldnt mod this car, but we all know that never lasts
I do think it could use some 19" wheels

This.
I used VHT Nightshades...Just buy some clears off e-bay for like $40...paint them with 2 layers of nightshades and 1-3 layers of clear...let it dry for 24-48 hours...they are very easy to swap and with 2 layers of nightshades it almost matches the paint exactly...I'll post some pics later when I get some time to show you.

Former Vendor of MBWorld
WELCOME!
She looks great! I have a set of KW V3's to lower it right now for the coupe, selling for CHEAP. If you're planning on lowering it, that's the best route for an adjustable setup.
Otherwise man, congratulations and let us know if you have any questions. This is one of my favorite forums by far, everyone here is awesome.
