Hello everyone. Been a lurker for a week now. Picked up my new-to-me 507 coupe in white a week ago. Previous car was a 2013 GTR full bolt ons with flex fuel running e85. Before that was a Lamborghini Superleggera, and another 2009 GTR before that. Got tired of the attention so found the amg to be the best balance between fun and low key.
Although the power is underwhelming, it is tons of fun to drive letting the rear end go from time to time. And sounds great with secondary cat delete and resonator delete.
Hope to learn lots from all the AMG aficionados here.

Thanks for the welcome.
Sorry I haven't had a chance to take proper pics of the c63 yet. But a few below plus a couple pics of the previous cars as requested.

Thanks all!
Lambo was sold. One of the worst driving cars I've ever owned. Sounds fantastic though when the v10 starts screaming with straight pipes.
The C400 belongs to my buddy. That shot was taken when I was over at his house for a BBQ a week ago.

Why such a bad driving car?

well everyone is different. Just to me it was a bad driving car. Front pushed a lot (understeer) due to all the weight in the back and AWD. It gets too much attention....and too much is not a good thing. Whenever I take it out I have to plan ahead in my head where to go, where to park, etc etc. At night driving down dark streets, every car looks like its high beaming you because it's so low. Clutch and tranny makes it not a "press-and-go" type of car. All that combined together is too much stress and "thinking" that has to go along with it. At that time I had an Audi A4 as a daily driver and I found myself driving that most of the time and enjoying it more.
Maybe it's just personal preference, but I just want to "drive".

Great looking cars! I'm considering trading my 09 GTR for another Benz and the C63 coupe is high on my list. I too want to just drive more often than not but the power of the GTR is so addicting.

Thanks!
I love my c63 right now. It may not be as much a head turner, or as fast, or as exotic. But it fits my bill of what I want in a daily. It's easy to live with. Drives like a normal car. Maintenance like a normal car. You just hop in and go without getting too much attention unless you put your foot down.
The Lambo was a playboy car. That's the only thing it was good at. The GTR is a speed junkie car. The C63 is a "gentleman with a wild side"s car. If that makes sense.
I'm still a speed junkie, hence my bikes.
