Coming from an Audi 2016 A7 which warrenty expires this Sept. I recently looked at 2 MB dealership on AMG C 63 and AMG C 63S. Will test drive one or 2 this week. Have a few questions:

1. Dealership Tire/Rim Insurance policy worth taking?

2. Any other advice should I beware of with options, dealer sticker price?

3. Is there issues with the color Diamond White ? ex.

Thanks

Well, if you are talking about the C63s it would be a W205 and in that case you are in the wrong forum.

He may have double posted. To the OP, the C63 is normally aspirated. You hit the peddle, you go. The W205 is a turbo, that means lag. It also means it's very difficult to 'modulate' a turbo. Damn, you can't do it. Let's talk fact here. The C63 will increase in value for this very reason. They just don't make them like this anymore. If you do pull the trigger, I hope the one you're looking at looks something like my wife's coupe.

W204 vs W205? Depends how much money you have and how much you like massive exhaust notes.

What facts do you have that the w204 c63 will increase in value? (not talking about the BS).
I don't see that happening in the next 20 years.

Not even the e46 M3 is increasing in value. It is holding its value pretty good but that's it. A good 2003.5 goes for around 13k.

Wishful thinking at best, I think. If, then the Black Series, but not the regular coupe/sedan. Maybe the 507. Natural aspiration aside, some think the facelifted C205 might be the one folks will lust after eventually, once it turns out that the 206 will be a 6 cylinder. I've long resisted going turbo charged. My current ride is a '13 Audi RS5 with a sweet high-revving 8500 redline naturally aspirated V8 and I will miss it, but the V8TT in my upcoming 2019 coupe is not your typical turbo charged engine. Its response is fairly close to an NA engine with the smaller less inertia turbos nestled inside of the hot Vee and the relatively small boost level. The lag issues referred to above are a bigger issue in small, high boost turbo charged engines. The V8TT is still a 4 liter V8 down low before boost kicks in.

My recently new to me 2013 C63 is my first n/a car I've had in 16 years. In my experience factory turbo cars are cheaper to extract more hp, more fuel efficient for a given hp output (if that matters to you), produce more torque and peak torque lower in the rev range. Compared to my previous turbo cars the C63 feels slower/less lively as a daily driver due to the bulk torque a turbo car produces low in the rev range.

You guys really know how to beat a dead horse. He’s asking about the W205.

juggernaut1

Yep, I (we) know that. So I say the W205 would be a better engine for the above mentioned reasons.
