Well you didn’t mention that the P31 car had mods....

I don’t think you’re buying either. We see a lot of tire kickers come through here.

I didn't know at the time....was a hypothetical question. I know there can be hit and run types on forums like these. My questions are legitimate. I pick mine up from Louisiana in a week. I'll happily post pics when I do.

I haven't owned my C63 for a year yet, going to be come mid-November. But, I put about 1,000mi/month. My guess is gonna be 11-12k miles per year (as of now). Although I'm getting my truck back up and running so I can use that as my DD again, so the C63 will turn into the weekend car/fun car. I bought mine private party and inspected it myself. The seller seemed very transparent and an all-around good guy. Bought it and haven't had a problem with it since *knock on wood*. Well, minus the A/C not working (which I knew when I purchased it, it was low on freon). What were the mods on the P31 that were concerning?

Oh, I understand. I personally like the look and feel of the H&R springs, but I know that the car pulling to the right is a known problem when people lower their C63 with H&R springs. There's a whole other thread dedicated to the H&R springs pulling to the right (unfortunately me included, but I love the way it drives too much to revert back to stock). https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...stalled-2.html . At first I didn't have this issue but since the springs have settled the pull is back. It doesn't bother me too much to warrant the $1k KW bushing kit. Someday I'll do it, but it doesn't bother me too much as of now.

EDIT: Here's the link to the car for anyone who's interested in seeing how it looked http://indyluxurymotorsports.com/veh..._number=2520A#
