Said goodbye to E63 yesterday...
Following a horrible split up with my girl and after dividing all my things, I had to make some tough decisions....one was getting rid of my beloved AMG. Yesterday I sold my 09 E63, the perceived cost of ownership coming up was simply too much of a burden (service C, tires, registration, etc). I will still probably check this forum out from time to time, but I don't see myself getting back into an AMG anytime soon.
I do have the AMG members lounge hat and decals if anyone wants them. I am in Costa Mesa and you are welcome to them....as long as you own an AMG

Sorry to hear that. Life can always take unexpected turns, but usually these things tend to work out for the best in the long run.
Are you keeping the C350?
(Just curious, did you sell it privately? Do you mind telling me how much you got and the miles you had on it? I have another car on order and still debating about keeping my E63 (also a 2009.) You can pm me if you feel like sharing the details, thanks.)

Gosh bro, at least keep the hat as a lovely parting gift. Plenty of AMGs out there with more to come. When cash comes around again, we'll be here for ya.
Keep your chin up.

E55 AMG
Sorry to hear. I feel your pain. Got rid of my E55 to better my financial situation not long ago. My wife promised me that I could get another AMG within a certian timeframe because she respects my love of cars.
I still check in here almost every day and I don't see that changing. Hope you do too. It is a great place to learn and watch the progression of MB.

Women and E63s are expensive. Now that you've freed up funds, upgrade to an E55 for 20K! 
But seriously, things can only get better. Thanks to my previous divorce I now have a better woman and a one in a trillion son.

But seriously, like others said, keep the hat etc. you'll be back in the saddle before you know it.
Chin up, you'll be happier down the road, for sure!
Stay here, just look at the support you're getting on this thread alone
And I know that I use my love of cars as a motivation to work hard and make money so I can reward myself later.

Thanks everyone for the kind words and encouragement. I got another car, and I am working my way back up and really focusing on my business. I am not sure I will aim to get back into an AMG, I am kind of liking the low car payment/low insurance thing.
The hat and decals were claimed fist by T-bone. If he decides he doesn't want them I will post here again stating they are again up for grabs.
