New to the forums..need help

Hello to all I’ve been reading on this site for a little while now; getting some really good information, however I’m stuck with this question, do I buy a new c63s coupe or a cpo e63s? I never drove a MB before only bmw’s, I currently have a 2012 550i xdrive with stage 1 jb4, any comments are welcome, if I buy new I will do European delivery.. I am already signed up for road to Atlanta in May, you guys an gals here have really peeked my interest on MB.

Hello, thanks for the reply, both will be just fine because my kids are grown now, however I do have an granddaughter. Ok back to the point if I buy the c63s coupe I will keep the 550 for winter use, on the other hand if find a cpo e63s with maintenance an extra years of warranty coverage I can drive it all year long.

thanks for your thoughts; may I ask why you say the e63s would be a better choice. My plan is to track either one once or twice a year.

coupe will be more difficult for grandkids to get in and out of rear seats...
both are heavy cars for once or twice track days anyways...
if coupe is ok, then gts would be my choice over c63

wow that was quick, I think the gt is out of my budget..I was thinking around 92k only because that’s what my build came too when I was playing around on line; I believe I could find an e63s one to two years old in a nice spec, ideal would be an edition 1...what’s your thoughts?

E is always better than C.
