Too funny. Thats her He said he thought it was sold, maybe the deal fell through?

Thanks, Yeah the C63 is pretty nasty now. I just tuned it Power is up 50 whp from stock so power should be right around 420whp/400wtq. It is definitely very noticeable. 11's should be no problem at this point. Here is a teaser of the hood. It dropped about 45# off the nose. I had the sides faded in so it wasnt just a solid carbon hood. Its an AMG not a civic LOL.. CF trunk is being painted now. Got a few things going in it, but not rushing it. I have everything here to lower it but I find it very difficult to mess with. Just like pulling the ecu out and sending it off for a flash. Mistakes on this car can be painful...

Not sure if I will do much else. The car is pretty quick as is. I did a Lexus track day today and had the car over 175, so the tune is doing its job. No doubt it will run 11's. I'd do headers but I will most likely be buying the 2012 at some point so dont want a set of $4K headers that wont swap. So its all looks for now I think. Lowering, LEDS, lightweight rotors, and wheels. Most everything I have already. I bought a carbon fiber trunk and will also do a Braille 15# battery. As usual I will go for weight reduction. Power is fine at 420 or so. I scrubbed the black series because warranties will be running out in January. These AMG's need warranties. I wasted an E63 trans and the repair was $18K and that was internal pricing. It was warrantied but has always been on my mind. I like new stuff anyways. There is no doubt this C63 can do everything a CLK BS can and I have Austins baby seat in the back

FLOW1-come get one any time

wizzo 8-Thanks. It was a tough decision but I am happy with it... Trunk will be done similar.

Here are somepics from the track day. What an amazing day. We went out in groups in the ISF. I was pulled from the group and asked to race around with the instructor. Your suppose to do only a few laps and stay in line but since I was pulled we went off on our own and just went lapping everyone. So me by myself and of course the instructor wanted my wife in his ISF LOL... Then after that he took me and Andreia in the ISF and we did some drifting and hot laps. There are no words how fun it was.... Then we did some autocross and I had the quickest lap for my group which made me feel good.
