Damn that AMG looks intimidating especially from the front!!

A child seat in a C63BS? lol

[KRyn]

Man that thing is HOT! Of the other 2 cars owned by beyond members, do you know what colours they got their cars in?

When did rage2 acquire a child?

[rage2]

Both cars are black.

Children are not "aquired", but yes, I'll have a child riding in the car on a regular basis.

Very nice

But something about black cars with chrome trim makes me

Mainly because of people who do this:

I noticed you said that you picked up the car with 40 km on the clock. Out of curiosity, does that not concern you? I certainly would want to know how my car spent the most critical period of its break in. And if I am spending $100k+ on a car of that caliber I would make it very clear that I want the car to me with less than 10kms.

I know you mentioned you broke in the C63 the "hard way" or I guess the "Motoman way". I would certainly agree and IMO I think you get better compression/leakdown results using that method. In fact if I was to buy a car like that, I'd probably tow it and have it broken in on the dyno, and a non-synt. oil change 50 kms in. Not really sure what warranty implications that might have.

Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I can just picture some young kid taking a brand new car with a cold engine for a nice "workout".

That's about average to be honest, Most cars that come through dealerships have anywhere from 25-50km on them.. Between moving them around in shipping yards, initial manufacturer road test and getting in and off of trucks.. It's not that uncommon..

^ this.

Every new MB I've bought has roughly the same # of mileage on it. My sales rep made a point to show me how many km's were on it at the rail yard when we went to pick it up.
