I own a 2010 204 C63 saloon car, 5 speed auto. It is a wonderful car to own ,drive etc. I have it serviced by my local MB garage, and it costs approx £600 per year to service, using genuine parts, and professionally trained staff. I think that is superb value for money. Well done MB. Would recommend anyone to buy one of these cult, future classic cars as they are absolutely wonderful machines.
You gotta love that C63 especially Edition 507, it is one of the best cars AMG has ever made. Super car performance and everyday practicality. Last of the 6.2 litre V8 Future classic. Too bad they are so rare.
The 507’s do look phenomenal, I just think they’re too expensive for what they are, most of the differences are cosmetic and can be done to a regular C63, but I suppose you’re driving something a little more exclusive! I would much rather just buy a plain C63 and save £15,000+ as free fuel and modifications 😆
@@NathanMannin Yes there are some cosmetics but there are also many engine upgrades to get from 450 to 507, then there's the LSD, suspension upgrades, etc so if you only want a few of those items, \upgrades it may be cheaper to get a plain c63 and do the upgrades individually. If you get a 507 then you get all the upgrades, plus factory 'warranty' / engineering and the fact that the car is still completely 'stock'.

Great video once again.👍 In the beginning I can relate to the quick release to start the engine, even my w202 is like that! Such a cool car though is the C63!
I'm on my second c63 at the moment & the 1 thing I'll say about it that I don't like, is that the suspension is quite firm all the time. I know that it sporty (ish) & for me it is a sign of getting old but I recently got a diesel accord for a daily & the difference in comfort is just nuts.
@@chris555 That’s interesting to hear, I’ve always found my C63 to ride quite well despite it being an AMG car and on the Multispoke 19” Wheels 🛞 I suppose when you have a car to compliment your C63, like your Accord, then it would be a noticeable difference! I had a Volvo S80 V8 with 17” wheels with FAT sidewalls, it felt like I was gliding through a pillow of clouds, it was so compliant over any bumps, by far the most comfortable car I’ve been in, and the seats in Volvo’s are just like your Grandmothers armchairs 🤣 So jumping back in my C63 did feel like quite a jump in ride comfort, so I understand where you’re coming from. I now own an E85 Z4, which now makes the C63 feel like what the Volvo was 😆
@@NathanMannin that is funny. I have an s2000 so kinda z4 similar but also although it's been in my garage for years :( I know what you mean also, the C63 felt very compliant in comparison. I don't think I want an ultra soft car but just a slightly better setup. Maybe its because both my C63's have been over 70k miles when purchased....who knows? Some KW V3's would be very tasty mod I think but I'd prefer to get them for the s2k 1st. The accord has only diesel & oil spent on it haha
@@chris555 How interesting, both of these sort of cars compliment each other so well! How come your S200 has been off the road for so long? Do you have different wheels to me? Always an option to maybe get 18” wheels on the C63 for better ride comfort, they just don’t look as good in my opinion, I think in the saloon or estate you’d get away with the look though.

Hello Natan. Love the videos. Dude your last video that showed the pen holder in the glove box and center console, I had no clue about it and ran out to the garage to see if I had it and it does. BTW since I am left hand driver the pen holder is easier to pull out because it's on the right side of center console. The only thing I can not get to work is Tunnel Mode. Dude have you ever had an issue with the driver selector. The other day I hit 52k miles I started my car as usual and for some reason it didn't light up with that little red light and stayed in Comfort mode and no matter how many times I twisted the knob it would go to sport, sport+ etc. However after I parked it for a few hours it came back. BTW about MPG. I drive in Sports+ everytime. so my overall MPG is 10.7 mpg and Average is 9.5 mpg. LOL I don't think I drive it too hard, but some say I drive it like an AMG Test Driver. LOL LOL LOL right now gas is $5.45 per Gallon. LOL I am not disappointed in my MPG as you pointed out if I do want better MPG and leave it in Comfort."C" on the twist dial. LOL LOL LOL Nathan what are the 2014 C63 507 Sedans going for in the UK right now. If you happen to be tracking the prices do you see many with the 255 option?
Thank you! It’s interesting to know they didn’t move the pen holder for right hand drive cars! It’s always fascinating when you find a new feature in the car! 😁 Perhaps try holding the button for longer? I do recall seeing on a forum somewhere it might’ve only been on European cars only, but don’t quote me on that, so if your car isn’t European, then maybe that’s why? I also had that intermittent issue a couple of times where the drive mode selector stops working, I had to leave it a few hours like yourself, and then it started working again. I know a few other C63 owners who’ve had the same problem, it’s just a weird glitch which fixes itself after being off for a while.
@@NathanMannin Cool yeah as soon as that happened with the driver selector I jumped onto the c63 forums and found out other people experienced that too. I guess is just some weird glitch. LOL I already looked up the part number for that part, but after a few hours it worked. :)

I suppose it’s down to personal opinion, I think the coupe seats look good and how you can adjust the headrest. It’s just the fact they look too similar to the regular coupe seats which is a bit unfortunate. I do still love them though, and they’re extremely comfortable long distance too!

Not sure if it’s an issue across all of the w204 range, but one to look out for 👍🏼
Former Mercedes parts department guy here. Don't. Don't buy anything Euro that's older than 10 years old or you're gonna go very broke trying to keep it alive. Parts, if they're even available anymore, are absurdly expensive. That's all, consider yourselves warned.
I mean I’ve bought numerous cars over 10 years old such as this car, a 955 Cayenne, a Volvo S80 V8, and the parts haven’t been that expensive when sourced from particular places.

I suppose it’s down to personal opinion, I think the coupe seats look good and how you can adjust the headrest. It’s just the fact they look too similar to the regular coupe seats which is a bit unfortunate. I do still love them though, and they’re extremely comfortable long distance too!
I average 11mpg. But love it.
@@vinaychauhan7936 Good on you for driving it properly, I don’t think I’ve ever touched 11mpg after a hard drive 😆
@@NathanManninwhat do you get driving it hard? These are one of my dream cars, and a couple months back, I got to sit inside of a white facelift estate, and rev it and it made me the happiest person to live that day 😂
@@Jjm2024-u3t My record so far is 7.3 mpg. 2009 c63 P30
Y don't u talk bout head light issues , electronic issues ?
@@DKarGarage The head bolt issue was for pre facelift cars only, this is a facelift. I haven’t encountered any electronic issues with my car from memory. Perhaps the drive selector mode can stop working, but that fixes itself after a few hours and has happened to a number of fellow owners.
@NathanMannin I'm talking bout headlights issues and rear lights issues , they fog up and burn up all electronics with it , it's 2.5k usd per corner for the front to fix
@@DKarGarage Ah I apologise, I must’ve misread that! I’ve never encountered light issues, I’ve seen it fog a little in my headlights, but only during winter time and it clears itself.
@@DKarGaragein my parents old w204 c220, it had an issue, where the wires basically burnt out inside of the ecu or something related to that. One morning the car was fine when my mum took it to work, but after the shift, nothing. It had completely conked out. Not sure if it’s an issue across all of the w204 range, but one to look out for 👍🏼
So how come you’re selling it?
@@Wildy14 Personal circumstances, otherwise I’d keep it forever!
Former Mercedes parts department guy here. Don't. Don't buy anything Euro that's older than 10 years old or you're gonna go very broke trying to keep it alive. Parts, if they're even available anymore, are absurdly expensive. That's all, consider yourselves warned.
Why would parts for this become discontinued? Absolute legend of a car
lol you can't be serious... ever heard of fpc euro? not to mention literally hundreds of aftermarket manufacturer a 10yo benz is practically new
@@MattD-GV he worked for mercedes and yes they do discontinue parts but after market is alive and kicking you'll never have issues with parts
I mean I’ve bought numerous cars over 10 years old such as this car, a 955 Cayenne, a Volvo S80 V8, and the parts haven’t been that expensive when sourced from particular places.
