Sold my 08 c63 and just recently purchased a 12 Starfire Pearl ISF. Had it for only a week and I'm enjoy every minute of it! I'm wondering if there's any meets down here in Miami?

I can't speak regarding the meets in Miami as I'm in Cali, but welcome to the boards! Post up some pics of your F if you get a chance.

Honestly I love almost everything about the C63. The interior is much more spacious than the ISF's. The C63 has lumbar supporting seats that hug you comfortably, but I gotta say the F's leather is so much softer. The stock exhaust rumble always puts a smile on my face, and the torque makes the car ridiculously fun to drive. However the transmission is definitely disappointing compared to the F. It feels laggy/shifts slowly, while the F's tranny feels much more responsive. I do enjoy that engine growl after 4k rpm... I disliked the anemic rear tires that the c63 has. I also had a few electrical problems here and there... All I can say is I'm happy so far with my F, and I can't wait to break it in and start the modding bug all over again.

There are quite a few ISFs in Miami, not many ISF specific meets though. My car is under a car cover as some custom work gets done, but when its finished we should set something up in the FL section.

Congrats and welcome to CL

There's a local meet every thursday at London Square on 120th and 137th same plaza as Costco across from Tamiami Airport


Sometimes theres a decent crowd out there and sometimes its not too packed, also hit up ROBSIS250 from HiProfile they host local meets for high end cars every now and then

You should have your meet at Sports Grill parking lot down the street.

Whenever I was in Miami up from the Keys for the day. I would grab some wings.

Congrats and nice looking C63. I'm sure you'll be bumping in to some other F owners down there. I was just in Miami and met one F owner and had seen another driving. More in one weekend then a lifetime in Boston.
