    Exhaust is Ridiculous...


    And I have an idea for the avatar. Just need 10 seconds of free time to make it.

    2016?

    What kinds of deal you got on that?

    Nice car. I love my faux AMG. The only thing that bugs me is the wind buffering around the driver door at speed or when wind goes a certain way which I think it still impact most 2016 builds. I think they solved it in 2017s. Although they fact that they offer acoustic glass on 2017 GLC as an $200 option, it may still be an issue.

    So don't tint the fronts until you got more seat time, there is a TSB to either swap window out with acoustic glass or weather stripping to solve the issue.

    Yup 2016, I think I did as well on it as I could have. Very happy with the price considering sticker was north of 100.

    Haven't noticed any wind noise as of yet but C63S does have different geometry so maybe it's different?

    Nice. That grey is same as mine and it's so easy to take care of.

    Noise usually come from 80+kph driving + cross wind. So it is hard to replicate. I just drove 800km on #1 to Kelowna and not notice it.

    The other noise I got (seems common) is the the weak spring they use in the sunglass holder making it vibrate. Shop guys knows it immediate when I brought the attention to him.

    Other than those issues, my car had been solid.

    Just drop into MB World to check around.

    Cool, I will try and keep an ear open for anything since it goes in for diff service in the next month or two anyways depending on how much seat time I get.

    Nice buy! I was a huge fan of the interiors of the MB at the international car show.

    And the AMG exhaust...

    I thought you said no Chryslers?

    Congrats! Must be a completely different experience from the BMW

    Very different. Feels more and less controlled all at the same time.

    And I'm comfortable with the concept that my car is as much a Chrysler as an Aston is a Ford.

    Well Aston is now a Mercedes so by transitive properties, it's a Chrysler too.

    Congrats by the way. Love to hear what your 1st winter will be like.

    Hey now, selenite grey looks awesome. It almost gives off a matte-like appearance at night time.

    If they ever end up making a 4matic 63, I'll be all over it I highly doubt that will ever happen though. Do you plan on doing any mods in the future?

    Not a big mods guy. I would like to try the new PS4S's once I wear off the POS dunlops that came on the car.

    Maybe some CF mirror caps? Hahaha

    Oh join the PL...IMO the best thing about being an AMG owner (outside of the car). You get free goodies every now and then!
