      Night and day .. Not even really v cold but I've actually got traction back again .. Will pull again without the tail wiggling and feels planted.

      And as a bonus I guess I may be able to function should the white stuff arrives.

      Been more noticeable on this car than the CSL .. GT3 etc and all been dailys and all weather .. Lost traction on the summers as soon as weather dipped.

If my local merc dealer wasn't full of pricks! I'd blag a good test drive to see what all the fuss is about
        The facelift one runs a different box terry. 2011 onwards. Much quicker change as they have ditched the torque converter.

        It's still no dct box, but it's very very good.

          Not owned but when the CSL was in for repair years ago when the V8 was new I had a loaner for 6 months so a virtual ownership lol

          Box is not a slick and as a track weapon if your timing it the m3 is better.. But and its a big but .. The C63 makes you giggle more every day is a more accomplished cruiser and is just old skool mans mans car if you know what I mean.

          More smiles per miles, shouldn't make sense but just does !

            Daz, just be aware that if temps rise a bit the AMG will rip those winter tyre to shreads very quickly.:thumbs:

            Gently gently with the right foot!

                You really have taken this Merc ownership to heart. Next you'll be pulling over and taking on fares

                      good on ya daz for going winters. power is nothing without control.

                      how many merc drivers are going to struggle in the snow let alone not have any grip in the cold temps and stopping capability.

                      at least you can enjoy the car in the wet and cold without the fear of a pending incident. makes the summers last longer too.
