I came back... C63 Coupe to F10 M5

Hi

Came back to the fold, had my C63 for 10 months. Picked up my M5 Alpine white yesterday and am 'in love', WOOHOO! Pictures to come. Can somebody post a photo of their mobility kit sitting in the boot (trunk) as I don't seem to have one and would like to know what's actually missing?

Cheers
Craig

Hey AMGTHIS

Actually, it was a tough call. Those C63 Coupes are the business and it was hard letting go of the AMG noise, but I don't regret it as all. Here are some quick observations,
- I reckon the M5 has better build quality
- M5 is substantially faster
- M5 feels better planted on the road
- Turns out I like the M5 exhaust note just as much, its just different.

MOD's to come,
- blacked out grills
- blacked out roof, opinions please and photos?
- Alcantara M Performance Steering wheel.

Woohoo!

Hi Stu

Good on you heading down to Queenstown, it rocks. I am headed to Akaroa, but will have my M5 with me :-) Pretty Happy!

Happy New Year.

I had asked my Sa during delivery, and he advised me bmw quite putting them in the trunk. I should have kept the one that was in my 550.

Mobility kit is in the trunk on my 2013 which was ED. It's under the mat stored in a cut out.
