Difficult one as I have never owned a C63, a couple of people I know have and they have had a few problems with them, however I do have a GS-F and am very pleased with it, had an IS-F before and this a great step up.

Picked mine up this Saturday
Agree on so far on the
'Screwed' together bit my Benz was starting to show it's age here and there....
I like the design of the lexus and would have never thought I d say that it sounds great but perhaps a bit less rowdy and does pop and bang less
The drive so far is good but with this weather I did not have my foot down

Love the engine the noise when it comes 'on cam' is glorious
On the motorway I made 26 mpg but as I said bad weather crusiecontrol type driving
The radar cruise control is awesome
I am sure the mpg will come down when the roads dry up...

Ah and did I say it s spectralflair orange a great colour can:t wait to see in the sun

I believe there are only 51 of us, so the chances are remote, would be interesting to see the figures though.

51 blimey rolleyes and I thought being one of 180 T 350s was special
Love it so far warms up quickly in the cold deforsts better than the benz and the sound really grows on me

Seems I was wrong with my figure of 51, apparently 97 is the correct figure.
