2016 C450 AMG
New MB guy from California

Hi all,

Didn't think I would end up with a MB but after driving the competition (340i, S4) the choice was clear...C450 AMG!

My only REAL exposure to MB was my mom's early '80's W123 300TD...not the most exciting car but definitely a solid piece of work.

Anyway, looking forward to interacting with other MB enthusiasts and learning more about the brand.

A few pics of my new girl...

Congratulations. This car looks awesome. Looks like its loaded with features. Welcome to the family. As of now the 340i and S4 are nowhere near the C450 (but that may change in future) at least in sheer luxury ambience.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the W205! Although I may be biased about the 340i since I am also a current BMW owner, I think the C450 is a great car as well!

Thanks for sharing the pics!

Congratulations, you have the most beautiful MBs of the world. Are you planning on doing some mods to it?

Welcome to MBWorld. I think MB has in the past decade made great strides towards breaking the mold on their existing stigma. Power, handling, luxury, and beauty all wrapped into one and ready to take on all make challengers. Good choice.
