Proper! I spent some time with the C63 Coupe presser a couple weeks back and was pretty impressed with it. I think you'll enjoy this a lot.

Even better is you get to order to your specs...I really enjoy that part of the process, the waiting, and finally the picking up of exactly what you wanted.

Thanks.

It's getting a little long in the tooth, obviously, but it's still competitive or best in class in some respects....at least in my opinion. The early builds of the 205 C Class were horrific but it seems they've smoothed out most of the issues now. Always better to get a late cycle build with these German cars. I want nothing to do with the new generation 4 pots coming out next year.
Bummer no V8,

Would be damn near perfect IMO.

Agreed but this turbo 6 is pretty good. 460hp and 520tq with a simple chip
Can't beat the sound of a V8 though...I'm sure you'll miss it.

Will you be chipping it??

Fantastic car. It'll be a great weapon for the run to Blue. As a bonus, wagons look great with a roof box.

Does this officially make you a MB fanboi?

Right! He has two now!

From 2 Acura to 2 MB in a relatively short span.

What are the stock HP and torque numbers?
Does chipping void the MB warranty?

*Edit* No worries, got it  - 385 and 384.

Lovely ride and great colour combo!  Now comes the hard part... waiting.  Is the 'Maro already gone?

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.

Even though it was what I expected you to get it's still pretty awesome.  You will have a bit of a unicorn in a couple years.  I don't think you will miss the V8 as AMG's all sound amazing.

So now you just have to pick out some winter rims and tires and maybe some floor liners.  I hope both your Mercs give you years of enjoyment.
