My New 507
After a long search, this beauty is finally in my driveway! Star certified, 2014 C63 507 Edition sedan in Designo Magno Platinum with only 4,500 kms (under 3,000 miles). Looks and still smells brand new! Absolutely pristine. I was originally looking at a W205 C63S but I'm just not a huge fan of the new body style and much prefer the exterior look of the W204. Couldn't be happier

Thanks! I was originally searching for red, but could only find coupes (I prefer the sedan). Very happy I ended up with the magno though. Different and definitely stands out on the road!

Thanks! Nothing crazy - matte PPF is going on tomorrow. Contemplating a tune and 2nd cat delete. Maybe a Mode Carbon spoiler and rear defuser, but that's about it. I want to keep it as close to stock as possible.
Would love to add larger rear wheel arches like you've done, but am worried the matte paint would be too difficult to match properly.

Yup -- they definitely give the car a pretty aggressive look, but if I had matte paint, I wouldn't attempt it either. Matching that finish is extremely difficult from what I've heard.

Thanks! Wish it had the red interior, but at least the alcantara breaks up the all-black a bit. Had to go out of province to find it. I'd been talking to a dealer who know what I was looking for. They called me right away when they learned they were getting this one in on trade. It was meant to be

Nice score my 4-door brother. You'll love that color. Much more dignified than red and it'll show differently in different lighting conditions. Super easy to care care of too. You'll find plenty of threads regarding matte paint care.

A tune you will squeeze out a little more performance since its already a 507 so that you may contemplate, but don't contemplate the 2nd cat delete. I highly recommend that be done immediately, you won't regret it.

I'm more considering the tune from a smoother gear change/better gas mileage perspective. Not 100% yet. After driving around for a couple days, a bit louder would be perfect. 2nd cat delete is very likely in my near future

And I agree, the colour is definitely dignified while still being very sporty and unique

Stunning!
Magno paint is very easy to take care of. Check out Dr Beasley's matte paint care products. (They're rated highly for matte paint finishes).
Also, there is some new coatings out that are made for just matte if you decide for a long term solution.
