2009 C74 AMG Renntech - $45k

This is at a local dealer in Columbus, OH. I actually considered buying it about 8-9 months ago but it was sold before I had a chance to test drive it. Here I am a proud owner of a 2013 C63 and its been traded back in to the same dealer. The guy traded it back in for a Maserati. So my guy at the dealership called me to let me know they had it again. Looks fantastic but I think I'll be keeping my 2013.

Curious what you guys think of it...

While I love the idea of a widebody, and the renntech one looks pretty good, the only thing I dont like is the rear bumper add on piece. I wish instead of being squared off at the top, it was kinda of tapered as it flows towards the back of the bumper to blend into into it a bit more. I think it would give it a sleeker, less tacked on look.

If I could just get the rear, without the whole kit, I'd be interested in that!

Love it, except for the ghastly double wing. Looks terrible.

Also, no additional power, just a bodykit? Priced to sell though.

Agree on the BFW - I would have the dealer remove it before I drove it home.

There is add'l power though - this car started with 451HP from MB. Its now tuned to 517HP.

Yeah, it's got a Renntech tune, which I would probably replace with the EC tune anyways...

I think the entire body kit looks pathetic!

Yeah, the widebody kit and spoiler are unfortunately much too fugly for an otherwise great car. IMHO the only wide body that looks good on the C63 is a well integrated, BS-like conversion that a couple of people have done on their sedans. This looks like a $999 tack-on special. Hell, even the riveted fender flares on my 951 track rat looked way more integrated with the body than this.

It's just way too much and +1 on chopping the wing off.

They lowered the price 10k since I created this thread a little over 7 months ago. Maybe it was just a little overpriced huh?

Apparently not - tonight it is marked as SOLD.

That's a Renntech body kit? I thought they were a pretty classy operation, but this one is FUGLY!
