I was originally looking at a C63 but everytime I went to the dealer the kept raising the prices and then there was the whole fiasco of MB shipping out cars that were supposed to have the Performance Pakage without any of the parts (they "forgot" to put on the upgraded brakes and suspension). MB "generously" offered a $500 discount on these cars. However, to add on the parts after the fact would cost you close to $15,000.

G35 Coupe "Sport Package"
my father only drives MB and he always has problems with them, not to mention the horrible service at the dealership. his current garage has an E500and an SL500. that is what helped me decide to get a G coupe over a CLK.

in all honesty...the E-class and CLK class are the worst in terms of problems. and the SL isn't far from it. my friends dads SL has been in the shop a few times this year alone. i definitely wouldn't buy one out of warranty. but the c63 looks sick

ok, the c63 i got its around 72k msrp, but i managed to have them take off 2.5k from msrp.

most c63 are equipped with multimedia and premium package which are around 6.6k msrp. the one i got has Carbon Fiber trim which costs 2.5k for 4 pieces of small CF trims, and Performance Package for 4k.

Performance package inclused LSD, bigger braking Rotor, different steering wheel than regular c63 amg as u can see in the pic, delimit top speed to 175mph and something i forgot.

yes, the car is a beast, no question about it. I feel like im driving a german muscle car
the downside is, it doesnt have push start and keyless entry believe or not, they r only available to canadian and european C63.. which is gay.
no rear view camera for sure, no parking sensor(maybe i havent found one yet), no live traffic info on navi, no automatic folding mirror, no cooling seats

well, you might say im asking too much for a C class, but i think the options i mentioned above are pretty much standard in a mercedes or bmw.

anyway, i cant wait until its past 1.5k miles, then i can have some funs and write some reviews about this car.

hopefully, that doesnt happen to my car.

but i know that MB and BMW has lots of electrical problem with their cars, BMW has improved, but MB...sadness

and thanks guys for all the compliments

I wonder what would happen if I post this on a E90post.com or m3forum.com
I expect some compliment, but most likely, me and my car will be flamed...lol and thats one reason i didnt want to be an m3 owner...

i don't think anybody can flame that car, it's gorgeous, luxury, fast and it's STOCK

as for issues, it's a love and hate relationship...just think positive
