Experience owning? Should I buy one? S or Non-S?

I'm considering a C63 down the road. Never was really a fan, never had anything against it. I just thought the prior model 6.2L was loud, obnoxious and a tire cooker rather then a track car. Now that the 4.0TT is in most if not all AMG's, I think this could be a possibility.

How has the ownership been? Do you still get excited driving it after 1-2 years? Every and I mean EVERY youtube driving video has loved the C63. Vehicle Virgins, Rati's Ride, MercBenzKing and Heysaiy - she owns one. They all say this is a great car. Its rare to see so much love for a car and this gets it. I have yet to drive one, thanks to Covid. I recently sat in a C43 and really liked it. I could imagine how the 63 is. Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

I still really love mine after just over a year. Puts a smile on my face every time it starts up and its great to drive.

All the reviews online will give you the positives however my main negatives have been:

customer service from MB UK is shocking (not sure where you are based)

parking sensors are rubbish far too sensitive, even with early warn unticked they beep and indicate red when you are about 1.5 M from any object so try using it to get into any car park etc and they are pointless!!

everything else though is brilliant!!

I have a C63s on order and get the S cause why not. S will have a little more maintenance due to the electronic diff but I doubt you have to really do much because I had a C350 and @ 80k miles I decided to do a transmission and diff fluid change because I did plan on keeping it forever and I wanted to see if it was needed so I had it done but I didn't have to have it done. I pushed it often too and drove it hard but with care and it had no issues. If you have any more questions about my build, pricing and what not I am down to share!
