Burning Smell
Picked up an 09 C63 w/ 53k on it. Almost every time I punch it I get a burning smell afterwards. I chunked it up to oil burning due to the power of the engine and how high its revving but I could be wrong. Anyone else experience this? Anything to be worried about?

Pull the under pans and check for oil leaking into the plastic pans.
