First Post, First MB - GLC 63 AMG

Hello everyone, just wanted to stop in and say hello. I've been lurking for weeks researching my new Daily Driver. I was torn between a used G63 and thew new GLC 63 as a daily. I made the later choice. Looking to get started on some things to personalize it myself.

Thanks for the wonderful wealth of information you guys already provided to prospective buyers. Hope to contribute myself heavily in the future.

- Jesse

I used links since I was going to have the wheels off for spacers anyway. I have some more things in the works.

Beautiful! My dealer has the same spec '18 on the lot. Tried convincing my wife to forget about the '19 43 we are waiting on and just take the 63 but no dice.

lol. A buddy of mine had a friend in his car club a few years back that had a white Carrara S, and then without telling his wife bought a white GT3. He would alternate which one he brought home, leaving the other parked somewhere else.
My wife told me that if I can make enough money to hide a GT3 from her, she'd be ok with that.
