Indeed a nice stop gap. The new C63 in 2014 may well have the TT 5.5.
If you listen to talksport/5 live etc then you may want to consider speccing the DAB radio. Others have complained about reception but I have had no such problems. But then I have complained about rattles and others have had no such problems!

Welcome Cubby.... Always had a soft spot for one of the Makinen Evos...

Made a wise decision to switch from BMW to Mercedes
I made the switch from Audi to Mercedes a few month back and havent looked back since.
Altough your M3 was a nice car to I think.

I must admit I don't listen to radio - I love my music and have enough on my iPod to keep me satisfied.

As with my M3 - when I get a C63 I will drive everywhere with the windows down listening to the engine....

My brother was a big Evo and Impreza man - he had them all so would give them to me like hand-me-down school clothes!!

Im sure I wont look back, live with a mate who works for MB so I couldnt stand the pressure anymore!

The M3 was lovely but started to look aged..... and I had a feeling something was about to go wrong (she had done 60k without a single problem, it was due!)

Great spec

Thanks man, very excited. Already have a new iPod ready to go.... even know what song I am going to play first (is that sad?)

Man up.....what was it?

Welcome Cubby. I'm assuming it's the coupe you're getting because you've specced the wonderful 350 CGI engine that's no longer available on the saloon. You wont have to wait for the C63 to enjoy some engine music, the real V6 that you're getting makes a lovely sound too, just a bit less of it. Enjoy.

ha ok - it was jayz "run this town tonight" - i love the track and it suited the car esp the opening verse "all black everything" referring to the car
