Nearly impossible to find one that hasn't been bagged on and has less than 200k on the clock. I have been looking for one for a while.

The most reliable way to tell is as Aleks indicated by the exhaust. ZHP exhaust has permanent tips that can't be removed, they have sharp edges while non-M has butterfly flap, rounded edges and are removable.

It gets a little confusing identifying the differences between M-sport and M-performance (Canadian version of ZHP). They look the same but the M-Performance has the 10hp more, the diff, and the exhaust that makes it a true ZHP.

Shadow line trim, Alcantara steering wheel and headliner and you can't get it in white are other differences for the ZHP.

Priced high, but this ticks off all the right boxes. Lighter than average, V8 power/reliability, room for skis/boards etc.

Only way to tell if you run the BMW VIN it has the package:

S767A Performance Package

There is a black 2012 c63 amg coupe in Edmonton with 50k kms on it for $30k... Hnnnnggggggggg

That's really cheap... To the extent that I'd be very skeptical. Also 2012 they put in the transmission that has a clutch, which will probably have to be replaced at some point $$$ (or does someone know better than me? Maybe it won't )

The MCT transmission is terrible. Most people find it more clunky/unpleasant versus the 7G-Tronic.

Does this work?
