hungry for updates

 

I want one of these so bad!!

 

Not too many updates. It hasn't been beat yet is the only update I am planning on buying a c63 black series so I'm not doing any more mods. They r on hold for the new BS.

 

It will be for sale shortly and I'm local

 

I've been looking around mbworld and from what i've gathered the black series is going to be 90k+...for that money wouldn't there be other cars better for the money? Say a GT-R or something?

 

Not for what I need. The GTR is garbage. Besides the normal problematic failures like the trans and rear end that are astranomical to repair I cant stand the thought of owning a car that tattle tales and voids warranty work. I love my AMG's. They are great daily drivers and do well on the track. If the black series comes only in a 2 door i willstill consider it, and also a gallardo, and GT3. I am just sitting back waiting for MB to finalize what they will be offering.

 

If they end up putting the turbo motor in the BS coupe, then I might have to find a way to get one down the road.
There was a nice C63 like your at the dealership that I picked up my GT500 from. They were about the same price so my wife was trying to get me into that one instead, but I knew I had the mod bug already with the Shelby.

Nice car

A GTR is high up there on my list also though. I just wish the clutches were not sa damn expensive!!!

 

"Garbage"...? Come on.


Anyway, in case you missed it:

That is seriously amazing.

 

100% garbage is just my opionion. Black box with GPS voids warranty if the car gets close to a track. Mandatory inspection for track use. Brake job is $5K and must be done by the dealer. Its tiny. It breaks. And it is absolutely horrible looking. My Uncle's wife is a big shot at Nissan and I can grab that car mad cheap, just not interested in it. They've made the offer numerous times. The numbers are impressive as is the car, but that comes with a huge price tag and BS. Just not my cup of tea. Im also enjoying the BIG N/A V8's right now

Yeah I saw the released pics. And I'll be honest here as well. Im not impressed with it. Im very disappointed in the final product. There is hope though. They will be offering track accessories which could make it more appealing. And we need to see more pics. But the price point will be hard to justify against a GT3 in my opinion. I was praying for a 4 door. Starting to look like it isnt going to happen. Im swaying back to a standard 2012 4 door P031 C63. Im in no rush. I love my modded C63. Still havent been beaten and its quick enough Im not bored with it. I havent even had any time for track days anyways. I have a free training session with AMG at Laguna Seca and also a PBIR event. Just cant find the time

One more thing, dont get me wrong on the GTR. Its an impressive car. I just hate it when dealers play games with warranty work etc. And from what I am told Nissan has this car on lock down. And if Im buying basically a two seater/two door it will be a something like a GT3 or Gallardo. GT3 for its pure track presence and the Gallardo because its just sooo damn sexy. With a 19 mo son I really need four doors though. Its a dilemna and it sux, but its life Plenty of time for 2 door/ 2 seater race cars later. I enjoy ridin out with my son. He loves it and its fun having him with me. It could be done in the GTR, but it is a tight fit. I actually considered it and went and looked it over. Mad tight in the back
