My C55 isn't a P-car either, but is still a great car to drive. And there are times when one wants a great car with comfortable space for more than 2 people. Regarding the expected depreciation on the C63, I agree the AMGs have traditionally dropped quickly (as I have experienced on 2 of them), but the Porsches are no better, and in some cases worse, like from $113k to $83k in 1 year.
