Any thing I should worry about if purchasing the 2016 W205 C63?
Selling my current Audi S5 and planning to upgrade to a W205 C63.
With it being the first of the W205 generation, are there any common and expensive problems I can expect? I expect this is usually the case for the first-gen models as they work out the snags with the later builds.
Looking to get one within the region of 35k miles with full main dealer history.

If you are looking at the non-S, then there are less potential issues. The early model years had issues with the dynamic engine mounts and the electronic rear locking differential. The former had cracking issues and for the diffs if I remember correctly it was a software issue. Don't remember if they failed mechanically. Both of these only apply to the S, though.
