Hi All, I am looking to purchase a C63, 507 coupe and was wanting to know what others thoughts are on this car.
I am in my early 60’s and feel it is now or never, but my concerns are around the suspension (potentially) being away too stiff and not nice for general road use, I must add the roads I mostly drive on are far from perfect and seem to have gotten worse over recent years.
The other potential issue I have read up on is can wear on these cars which can be very expensive to sort.
Any other comments gladly welcomed.

Thanks in advance
David.

I had one for 3 years loved the car. No problem with the suspension set up although it was 10 years ago. I’ve had a lot of AMGs this was the best one.

I had one in estate form with 18s and found the suspension fine.

However the 507 will have to be 19s to fit over the larger brakes. Other issue would be the 19s and cracked rims if the roads are that bad.
