new comer to benz from bimmer

Good day people... I am just joining the benz family... been a bimmer driver for about 15 years. I have 650i, X3M, X5 and a 1974 original 2002 bmw... last summer I decided to get into the amg series and bought a c63... love the car, certainly a different drive than a bimmer. I did not get to drive it much as I was traveling most of last year, and now it is parked for the winter. I cannot wait to get it out.


I am looking to learn more about the car and see what kind of mods should I start with... looking for advice.

Great choice. Also prefer the elegance of a naturally aspirated enigine as well

Let us know if we can help you with any lighting upgrades. We're very familiar with the w204 platform and have done complete LED and HID conversions on them for whiter lighting
