The day has come - Farewell C63

So, after 5 years 10 months, 168.000 km, countless sets of rear tires, and 27.000 litres of fuel the day has come for me to part with my beloved C63...
It has been a blast and I hope I will come back to the ///AMG family soon.

Thanks to this forum I was bitten by the mod bug, met many great people, and learned everything I know about the C63.
As you can see by my post count I have been visiting the forum daily for the last couple years (like a junkie) and I will probably
keep on lurking from time to time to see what you guys are up to.

P.S. I will post a few items for sale soon in a separate FS thread

Hey Matt, happy motoring in whatever you decide to get next. It has been a pleasure to have you around this forum. Don't be a stranger.

If you are still interested in doing some CF goodies I may be in touch. I was thinking of getting a hold of you for some mods over the winter. Mirror housings, grill, maybe interior, suggestions?.

Best Regards

Mort

Sad to see your amazing C63T go, it has served you well.
I know we never worked out a meeting in Germany, maybe one day
I'm sure you will start a new project soon, good luck with any future vehicles you might have in mind.

Herzliche Gruesse aus Chicago!

What a sad day Matt... you didn't tell me that last time we communicated over emails?

Now tell me you are trading it for the new w205 AMG C63 estate.

Well, your estate was built like a tank... your car will be remembered here as a legend with so many miles.

Good luck with the part out, I wont click that thread. *cry* LOL

Don't you want a part of history on your car? I mean this is like bidding for MJ's game jersey or something.

NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Matt, no. Stop it. Just stop it now. Unless you're going to surprise us because you bought the new c63s estate...

You still going to pop it and offer cf parts and that jazz? Or should we stop sending customers your way?

Good luck buddy

Matt,
Your estate was definitely one that inspired many to mod.

I'm sure you have plans and they will soon be released. It was a pleasure following all your mods and seeing you transform the estate into something unique and special. Good luck in the future.
