2012 C63 AMG
Newbi to MB AMG
Thought I'd better do the normal thing and introduce myself, I just joined the forum to gain as much information as I can prior to purchasing a 2012 (Facelift) C63 AMG.
I've enjoyed many high performance cars and also a bit of a concourse enthusiast, so my standards are high, some may recognise me from other forums.
I've come from quite a few car forums and find it the best way to gain knowledge and I've never owned a MB before. I think I've read everything possible on the web, to make sure I buy the right car and after driving my first C63 AMG last week, now I even want one more.
I initially started looking at M5's, but now I've decided on the AMG.
I looked at one last week, but the mileage was a little higher than I wanted, now I've found one within an hours drive of my with 31k from new and being sold by the original owner.
Going to view it on Sunday, so i'll keep you informed.
Oh..... I'm in England, hope you don't mind....LOL.

2012 C63 AMG
Well, I've had my late 2012 C63 AMG for a couple of months now, sorry for late update, but I've spent all my free time out driving it.
Great Car and a better drivers car than the M5 BMW's that I initially intended to purchase.
It's a low mileage car, (29k) and has everything I was looking for, with the exception of the upgraded sound system, but for me it's good enough and I find it's more about the car, than the sound system. Couldn't resist having the Eurocharged Remap, so now somewhere around the 510bhp until I do the secondary decat.
Will keep you updated.
