New Dude on the block

How’s it going y’all? New member here. I am almost an owner but I have some questions. I’m being an indecisive ******* atm, please forgive me. I cannot choose between a 2013-2014 CL63 or 13-14 C63 amg. I pretty much know all the differences. I love the CL look but the practicality and lack of innovation from the CL has me leaning towards the c63. But the big daddy baller look to the CL has me leaning towards the CL. I’m worried about part costs on the CL. Are they equally reliable? Worried about not looking like big daddy in the C as well. They are some what basic looking but fast af. Also. How much of a difference does the car make with more Power but 1000 lbs heavier in the cL. I’m torn. Please help me!!!

My .02 cents, go for the C. It is going to be more fun to drive, more practical, have better/easier resale value (the CL is even more of a niche car), and it will have more options for upgrades and personalization. The few times I drove a CL it always handled like a boat.
Now if you are more concerned about cool, a.k.a. "big daddy", I'd go for the CL and not look back if I was single with no kid.
Welcome and good luck.
