Sold my C63 but...

Bought a 507 - sold all my mods, keeping the 507 totally stock (I may have said this before and failed, but really this time!)

2014 Polar white, designo white/black interior every option except distronic (has LSD, Carbon Trim, light up door sills, parktronic etc.) 33k miles.

Bought it like 3 weeks ago (day it was traded in, but title took forever, car is CPO so took more time waiting for brakes from Germany to certify it, but finally have it in my possession!

Very nice - I see your side markers have been changed out to the clear. Back when I was shopping, the dealer had both a CPO Mars Red 507 with the B/W interior and the Magno Platinum I currently own. It was a tough choice! That interior works well with your white exterior.

Yes car came with a few tasteful mods - clear side markers, back windows have some tint on them which helps the contrast, but otherwise is stock.

Black and white interior is choice my guy. Only option I am truly jealous of when I see it!'

Maybe I'll get mine re-upholstered one day when the bolsters wear out =D

I do like it, it is my first white car ever (in almost 25 years of buying cars), my wife has had a few, I have been more of a black car guy, but really like the black and white contrast on this one especially with the interior being black and white also! Obviously choice is very limited on 507 sedans, so I would have been ok with most colors (although matte would test my OCD since you can't just polish out little blemishes!)

Before I clicked into the thread I was like how many threads does he have to start about selling his car? Lol.

This thing is hot, I love it. Good call on leaving it stock as you honestly don’t need to change anything on the 507 or BS. What dealer did you purchase it from? I saw this car advertised as a fresh trade in somewhere on social media.

About time you let people know lol.I was surprised when I picked up your spacers and asked why you sold your car and then you showed me the 507 lol.

put that strut bar on it!

Ps since your car is bone stock can you post your mode 6 values. As I told you I'm battling o2 codes and want to see what the stock car values are.

I remembered like 10 min after leaving and wanted to come back and look with my obd2 reader.

Thanks and ya like 3 507's for sale in the country is about as large as the pool ever seems to be. My understanding is the 14 Sedan was only made for about 3 months, production ended in late 2013 hence the small pool, coupe continued for all of 14 into March of 15 and are easier to find.

I kept my eye on things for a year before one came up near me with the right options miles.

The only app I know that supports it correctly is obdlink on android. I'm not sure if it will work with a standard elm as the app came with it's own dongle.

I can try it and also look at what the other apps spit out.

Worst case you can stop back over one day and read it with yours.

Zaino leather cleaner works like a charm to get the blue off - you should have seen the towels after I cleaned it after the dealers so called cleaning (which did look clean but was far from it!)

Coating your leather work do wonders for this sort of thing. Check out Gyeon Leather Shield.

I will definitely check that out as the constant cleaning with a brush and zaino also adds some wear and tear that would be nice to avoid.

*Huge* congrats. I searched for 8 months for essentially this exact spec (really wanted a slick top), with zero luck. So instead went with a very bare bones version that I could build to taste.

Congrats again - your car is gorgeous.

Do they make "slicktops"? Have you had an E46 M3? That's the only community I've ever heard refer to cars w/o a sunroof as "slicktop".
