I do understand the desire for a separate forum... but I also question whether the volume of emails in such a forum would actually be enough to sustain it...

Seems to me that S63 drivers are a part of that higher-priced S-Class subset that does a4.5 sec 0-60mph or less... we usually have common issues...

There are (going to be) a lot more C63 Class drivers than S63 drivers...

Alas, those who can afford $127,000+ cars are always going to be a small minority in the larger MB community.

I agree the S63 should have its own category. Our numbers may not be those of the C63 but they are growing.

My reasoning is really for searching. If you put a category out for the C63 then one would assume that most enthusiast would look for S63 as a separate item as well. But mainly this also follows with the 221 chassis. The C63 is a new chassis and should get its own list as the 221 S63 should.

There isn't enough daily activity in this section to call for a sub-forum, IMHO. The C63 should be the bread and butter AMG model for Mercedes so activity for that model is going to be pretty high. The S63/S65 is a whole lot more exclusive so there isn't really much interaction among the other owners or about it in general (compared to the C63). My $.02.

Designo interior does not include wood/leather steering. you have to order the steering wheel seperately. I personally like the racing steering wheel.
