Bad day vs. C63 507: C63 wins by 4 (3-7)
Hi all,
I figured I put up a quick post here about the specialty of our beautiful C63s. The quick and dirty version:
Happy Driving all!

I figured I put up a quick post here about the specialty of our beautiful C63s. The quick and dirty version:
- Woke up late this morning.
- Had to do back-to-back meetings that ran too long. Typical "useless but must attend" meetings.
- Squeeze in a crappy breakfast due to no time in between meetings and customer work (feeling terrible!)
- Start remote meeting with customer.
- Cable issues occur. Time Warner re-provisioned line to lower speed, messed up modem, disconnect customer meeting, have to go to local TWC office for new equipment. NOT HAPPY NOW!
- Go to garage, attendant starts car. Giggle meter goes up to about 45%. Current Score 1-2
- Deal with TWC insanity.
- Drive home, windows down, sunroof open, free on-ramp with overpasses and huge concrete sound barriers on both sides of the road! Manual Mode makes giggle meter climb to 100%
Current Score 2-5 - Get back into work, more insanity. Meetings go longer than expected, hit gym late. Not really great workout due to bad food, slight dehydration but it will have to do. Score 3-5.
- Drive back from gym with wife. She says, "go outside, stand on the side of the road and just listen." She switches to S+ and punches it down the road.....The entire day fades away as I hear 1st gear roar, the crackle in the upshift to 2nd, then a quick shift to 3rd and then a burble back to 2nd due to braking for red light.
Happy Driving all!

I agree with you 100%!
It has such an aura about it, I recently caught my-self purposely keeping the door open on cold starts. Just so I can hear the growl and the pop!
It puts a smile on my face every time.

Driving my car every day to work makes me happy to wake up in the morning 
. I call it my adrenaline machine.. When I'm sad/mad, it makes me happy, and when I'm happy it makes me happier!

I always start the car before closing the door. Even if it isn't a cold start it still gives me that warm fuzzy feeling.
