Hello Merc people ; as from today , having px`d my 924 Carrera GT Porsche for an AMG C36 , I may be spending a little more time on this site . The car change was ostensibly for the additional seating, being blessed with one small boy and another baby due in December , but my test drive today highlighted what a splendid motor car these are .
Does anyone else have experience of the C36?
Mine is red with black leather and seems to be a very refined and potent machine which will be used (and cosmetically improved) on fine days and important occasions only .
After selling my 300TE two years ago , it`s good to be back behind the 3 pointed star .

Nothing yet ; It`s in pre-delivery service at the moment but should have it at the end of the week.
It seems reasonable to insure , although I had to take a separate "normal" policy as it`s not categorised as a classic car , and it will be run purely as an occasional car rather than everyday .
They drive very well of course and are more laid back (with the auto box) than the equivalent M3 . I prefer the image of the car to any contemporary quick four doors around .
