Birthday present to myself...

AMG C63 S with a half decent spec. Night pack, premium pack, 19' cross spoke black alloys, carbon interior, 360' camera, switchable performance exhaust.

Only had it a few days but it puts a grin on my face every time I drive it

Leaving it stock apart from an AMG carbon boot lid spoiler that's being fitted in a few weeks

Very nice, I really fancy one of these.

Still think the previous model looks better.

Lovely car that. Spent some 2.5k miles in one across America back in the tail end of 2016.

How are you finding the suspension? My only complaint was just how firm the suspension was. I couldn't work out whether it was knackered (a rental on 4k), shoddy tyres or just really firm from factory.

I'm away at the moment but will get some more pics up.

Only had it a few days but initial impressions are that it suits my needs perfectly.

I average 30k miles a year in my daily driver so I've bought this to keep as a weekend car for trips away with the family. Comfortable enough when needed but turns into a bit of an animal with push of a button.

I'm lucky enough to have use of my brothers 2013 6.2 C63 Coupe with PPP and AMG LSD which is an amazing car. I'm not certain the previous model is better looking but it is certainly even more of an event, due to that stupendous 6.2 V8.

Did you find it too firm in comfort mode?

My initial thoughts are that it is a little firm but as it isn't my daily driver it's not a concern.

Yes it was too firm in comfort but some of the roads out there were pretty terrible, particularly heading out of Vegas. On smooth tarmac it felt great. As I said though, I really do think there was something wrong, perhaps something as simple as shoddy tyres.

It was an utterly fantastic car though.

Surprisingly firm, even in the softest setting, IMO tyre pressure doesn't make too much of a difference either. Great body control as you ramp up the settings though.

ETA, nice car OP!

Think it's the 4.0 V8 Twin Turbo. Is it the M177 or something like that?

I wish it was an Edition 1, it is a C63S same as yours and almost the same spec but I have the black ash trim.
