New E63 driver...

Well today was quite the day! A car bonanza. I picked up my new E63 in palladium silver. I traded in my 09 SL63. I needed to get back to 4 doors and 5 seats as my daily driver. Having the SL63 as my dd was proving too difficult coordinating trips during the work day with clients, etc. I came very close to buying a black E63 (my dealership had 6 in varying pedigrees) until I remembered my black E55 and how insane it was trying to keep it looking perfect (which is something this **** guy needs to do). I was very happy with my palladium SL63 so I stuck with it on the new car. Don't get me wrong I love a black E class but I need a car butler to make it work for me.

The E63 is optioned with performance package, P2, parktronic, rear side airbags, pano roof and night view assist.

OK here's the bonanza...I also closed a deal on an 08 F430 with 2900 miles red/tan with a 6 speed manual. It is coming from Chicago area and I am waiting on delivery to the east coast. It will be my weekend ride. Wow this was a super Saturday for sure.

Good job, all around. Yes, for the first time ever, Ferraris and AMG's do belong together

Congratulations, on your purchase. I have a graphite E63, and I agree with you, as I'm an **** person as well. I had my fair share of black cars, including two black MB. They require allot of TLC to keep them looking great. That is why both of my MB are not black, my C300 is palldium silver. I will not ever buy another black cars ever. Silver is the new black for me. Enjoy the AMG and the Ferrari, I just love that car.
