Hey guys. What a year it has been with the LP640! Whew! Wonderful car and I love every moment in it. But , I need a car that I can drive daily . I was considering the M3 some time ago but dropped the idea due to its lack of torque and also had a bunch of high performance cars in mind (RS4,RS5,S5 ) but due to lack of availability and in some cases , lack of service back up (India, you see) I finally settled my sights on the C63.

I actually felt ridiculous initially for not thinking about this AMG at the beginning but hey, better late than never.

Following are the options that I feel should be on the car :

AMG Perf package (P30)
AMG carbon fibre trim (H73)
Designo roof liner in black (Y90)
Belt buckle with switch (U01) ---------------- What is this about?
AMG floor mats
Parktronic
Electric front seats
Auto dim interior mirroe
AMG Drivers package --------------------------- What is this about?
Memory package
Twin cup holders
Windscreen wiper w/rain sensor
AMG Diff lock -----------------------------Do I need this now that I have P30?
Folding ext mirrors

Whats the difference between COMAND APS and Audio 50 APS?

Thermotronic
Dynamic range bi xenons
Intelligent lighting system ------------------- What is this?
Model year info on model plate ------------- What is this?
H/K LOGIC7
Heated front seats
KEYLESS GO (YAY!)
Tailgate auto open and close


Please help me with the config and let me know the answers to all "what is this" options and also if I should add anything else.
Exterior color is Calcite white with Cogniac brown interiors!

Also, please see attached pictures and tell me the code or name of these rims.

 

What? No one here could help / pitch in some opinions?

 

Forum has been a little slow lately. Sorry I can't help... but I'm sure someone will chime in!!

 

BTW, just doing a quick www.google.com search, here's what I found...

* Driver's Package = raises speed limiter form 155mph to 174mph

* AMG Diff Lock = Seems the P30 comes with the LSD. Don't think you'd really need a Diff lock

* Intelligent Lighting System = Powerful bi-xenon headlamps provide five different lighting functions suited to typical driving and weather conditions: country mode, motorway mode, enhanced foglamps, the Active Light System and cornering lights. Yet another important contribution by Mercedes-Benz to safer driving in poor visibility.

I'm sure you can find more on google... but I need to log off now

 

I would pick up a preowned C63. They are taking a big depreciation. My co-worker bought one new and just sold it seven months later and lost $20k. Lot of bang for the buck though!

 

Yeah well the trouble is , I reside in India. 110% custom duty here , so no one sells an imported car in a short while. In addition to that , there are only 2 C63's in India and neither is up for sale.

Why'd your co - worker sell it off? Any issues with it?

 

u gotta copy and paste this thread over to MBworld.org
