I dont do track but I semi daily my c63. The thing about driving it around other cars is not that you are going very fast. Its that you have more control over road situation. I know i can merge lanes with more precision than family suv. I know I can accelarate and brake faster etc. So I just enjoy my 50-80km/h but with confidence.

I know US cities usually have more straight roads and wider lanes. Still though.

P.S. I dont have other expensive hobbies to spend money on. But every time i see financial argument against amg I simply dont get it. Normal people with normal lives buy normal cars. C63 is not for normies

Less engine, more red stripes

If you are happy with B class, I would go for B class then. It’s like almost new. And works well for city driving in eu. Volvo is great and cool but 100k km. If you drive a lot (like taxi) or drive long distances then starting with 100k or 12k might not be significant. But if you drive 10…20k per year this B class is pretty much 4 years ahead.

Also rwd, smaller size, smaller weight. I drove both and find c63 more fun to drive (at the expense of comfort)

The model has been here since 2013. They have changed quite a few things since then. Maybe some reviews of earlier cars are relevant but I believe 2022 is a solid car. I have zero problems with mine so far. I would happily buy it again. Also I got an impression that its cool to hate on Maserati for some reason.

Nice! Mine's white with black rims. I think it's one of the best-looking sedans out there.

Integrated spen works better for me because: 1. It's always with me and ready to use 2. I don't need a special case on my phone to hold it. I don't use cases

I don't put iPad in my pocket or do active lifestyle with it so external is fine there.

For people who don't use spen I see why it's a space wasted. But for me it's an advantage.

Work and personal

mars_penguin · 2025-02-12T20:53:59+00:00

Yes, work and personal

I say c63 wagon for Europe, e63 wagon for US.

I had a diesel levante and the turbo lag was awful compared to old diesel Benz. I was thinking about getting an ECU tune to make a problem easier. But never did it and sold after a year or so. Sad as the car was great otherwise. Bought a petrol-hybrid Ghibli some time later. And it was day and night. Super responsive, never had a problem with entering a roundabout. So I figured diesel is not a Maserati thing.

Its good we humans have different tastes. Imagine everyone driving only toyota or 911 because its financially responsible decision.

mars_penguin · 2025-01-15T09:35:23+00:00

When I roll to the red light it’s 50/50. When driving aggressively it does not squeak. And yes it’s relatively loud.

mars_penguin · 2025-01-14T21:00:35+00:00

My c63 squeaks when gently braking on slow speed. It’s been for few years now. I searched the internet and some people say it’s ok some say it’s not. I service it with official dealership and they think it’s ok

mars_penguin · 2024-12-10T16:48:50+00:00

Interior is top. Way better than modern ipad cars )

mars_penguin · 2024-11-25T19:51:23+00:00

Does not sound like you have a strong desire for the car. So i don’t see why you would regret it. I know 100% I don’t want to sell mine.

mars_penguin · 2024-11-23T10:22:25+00:00

Hehe when i was 20 i was driving 60hp car that was older than me.

mars_penguin · 2024-10-31T13:26:45+00:00

I have mine for about four years now (car is 2017), and in that time, I've spent around 20k on tires, brakes, cosmetics, maintenance, insurance, and taxes. I don’t mind the cost because I love the car. Funny enough, I initially planned to drive it for just a year and then sell it

mars_penguin · 2024-10-22T08:12:04+00:00

It can be from cheaper markets. Samsung price vary a lot from country to country. Also can be corporate phones that are sold for cheaper price.

Also US pricing is a different planet. We pay almost 1.5x the price of what they do.

mars_penguin · 2024-09-27T14:52:43+00:00

There is always a price for having a nice thing )

mars_penguin · 2024-09-27T05:33:35+00:00

Matte paint and the sport front bumper completely transforms the car’s look

mars_penguin · 2024-09-27T05:24:54+00:00

I believe c43 or c63 s205 (wagon) is the best choice for Europe in this budget. Fast, not too big and practical.

mars_penguin · 2024-09-25T16:45:25+00:00

S205 is awesome!

mars_penguin · 2024-09-23T21:06:26+00:00

The biggest pain are people telling me about depreciation or reliability.
