update: I sold my 2002 C32 a while ago, bought a 2000 C230k that I did a bunch of suspension mods to, sold that, bought a 2004 Volvo S60R that I had built up to 360hp, sold that for Christmas and bought a 2006 C55 in Diamond Black metallic a week later. AMG is such a nice car, it's hard to drive anything else :-)
