The poor thing was in Dallas. I had to go rescue it and bring it back to a good home. Traded my 2013 Mustang GT for it, and it doesn't feel like I sacrificed any power.

Seems to have been pretty well taken care of. No big plans other than maybe some black wheels (sorry). Oh, and those windows are going to need some tint ASAP.

Congrats! Taking on a new member into the family is always such a beautiful time. Enjoy it.

With the right map on, the C63 makes ~100hp more than the Mustang. And handling wise, while no M3, I would venture to guess the C63 is slightly better than the Mustang. That's what is so endearing about our little c's - all the power with the civility and turning radius and room of an everyday economy car, and that's before you get to the MB refinement and build quality.

Haha no worries, tint, wheels, removing those hellish orange sidemarkers and maybe the depo lights and you are set. Enjoy it and I'm sure we'll run into each other sometime!
