I'm baaaaaaack!!!!! 2014 C63 507 Coupe!!

Had a 2009 C63 sedan. Loved it. Warranty expired. Bye bye. Bought a new (but highly discounted) 335i Coupe and just couldn't shake the feeling that I had stepped down in a monumental way. When I saw a 63 on the road I felt like a chump!

Just picked up a 6K mile 11 month old 507 Coupe with tons of options (including the coveted bald tires and low fuel light illumination). Polar white on black. Multimedia, LSD, Nappa Leather, Carbon Fiber, lane tracking, keyless go, illuminated door sills, chrome door handle inserts, lighting package. Love it!

Replacing tires with one size up for a little rim protection and gap fill.

Anything I should know about these cars? Little "performance tips" like the part number to replace the cig ashtray with a rubber mat? Any Euro parts that replace US stuff? I used a Euro center console lid (sliding cover and better armrest material) on my '09 63 and it was a nice upgrade to the crappy looking US cupholders.

Long story short. I'm stoked.

Steel Grey Metallic C63!!
Welcome back to the dark side! You should go even larger in the back. 275 rears for added grip.

Haha

Welcome back. I went through a similar scenario with you. Had a c63, tried to go BMW, went back to a 507!
I almost spit my coffee at the coveted bald tires and low fuel light options. I believe it's standard equipment.

Multiple
I did the same twice now (went from an E55 to an M3, then came back to a C55. Then went to a 911 and now back to a C63). AMGs are very endearing and they keep calling you back!

Congrats on the new car!

Great decision. Now you can have your man card back as well.

Get it tuned and I agree with the 275 rear tires. Two great upgrades, stock tires have little grip in the dry, good in the wet though. I've got the same interior as you plus the LSD option. Great car.

I had to rent a car for the last week. A 4cyl Camry. When I started up the C63 this morning I actually laughed out loud. These cars are amazing.

Ok a 335i is a nicer car, but coming back to a C63 after a couple years must feel so good!!!

No tune. I'm an old school dealer guy and aftermarket anything is taboo to me.

275's fit on the rear with NO RUB and NO ISSUES whatsoever?

How about fronts? 255's fit?
