Hi All,
New member here and looking for some advice but first a little back story. I was pootling around in an i30N performance. Cracking car that gave me a lot of emotions. Unfortunately customer service was quite sh*te and car had a few smaller problems. Me being me, I have gotten to a point where I couldn't stand it. Went for an M140i. Very impressive car but was just boring for me. Blazing fast, on long motorway runs it easily delivers 40mpg, etc etc but I just couldn't live with lack of sound. It's a gpf version. Spent money on 2 different exhausts. At first they improved the experience but something still isn't there. Coupled with very bouncy and unsettled suspension, I decided that I cannot spend any more money on this car to make it better.
I have viewed a few of e92 M3s as that was always on the bucket list. Almost bought one approved used but salesman was a bit fishy and didn't budge on the price despite that car not having rod bearings/throttle actuators done. In the end I thought it's too big of a risk to take and pulled out of purchase.
This brings me to today. I've gone to test drive an approved used C63. Loved the sound, loved the way it drives. It's just on a different level to what I am used to. Equipment seems decent for the price. I know market is currently "high". Both literally and figuratively but I have managed to work out a deal where I am happy with the purchase. That brings me to my questions. Anything specific I need to look out for during delivery? If anyone knows below car/sees any red flags can you please let me know?
Thanks!
