'new' car arrived today and its amazing. the previous owners took very good care of it so thanks @speedpeddler and if any other forum members owned this in the past.
i'm amazed how well the paint has held up after 7 years and 90,000 miles!
Eurocharged stage 1 tune is going on as we speak

I prefer the exterior size of the C63.
I like the AWD of the E63s as it is my winter car. I had winter tires on the C63 and it did fine for 2 winters with a lot of snow and ice, but the AWD offers more stability than the C63 had. Not as good as the AWD of my Subaru STi, but it gets the job done
The interior of the E63 is definitely nicer than the C63, and the interior room is nice, but the rear seats are used probably less than once a month on average.
I prefer the sound of the C63, but the torque of the E63s is a huge bonus
, plus the option to easily add a lot more power to the E63s.Will likely keep the E63 for another 5+ years, but I have my eye on a Taycan.

Im looking at this car for sale now at a dealership with 154k miles its been wrapped or painted in purple. I found this forum from googling the vin. I am very interested in the car but just wondering about potential issues. How did the car treat you under your ownership? And where did it go after you were done with it and how many miles did you own it until? Thanks.

Resist the urge if possible... else get a PPI to help you decide.

@desi16 - are you looking at my old C63 with wide butt ? Can't say enough good about the car and the build was open checkbook.... very ... it ran super well all the time unless it was cold, then E85 was rough - and would likely be best to go back to a warmer plug...... it would barely start and Idle when it got to 15 in TX .....
