Congragulations. The IS-F would likely be more reliable, but if you live in an area with bumpy roads I can understand you passing up on it. The C63 definitely has a more-civilized suspension....and, yes, that torque.

Treat that hand-built AMG V8 well, though, and break it in carefully. I know you will want to wring it out ASAP, but keep it under 4500 and don't floor the gas pedal for the first 1000 miles or so.

Here's my formal take on the 2009 model:

that is the nicest C63 I have seen

 

I'd go C63 over and IS-F too.
Very nice!

 

M3 is still the benchmark, yardstick etc.

Just kidding! congrats and enjoy the car.

 

I am also wondering why TunedIS-F went from a C63 to an IS-F. The C looked drop dead gorgeous.

Congrats on the purchase!

 

^^Im wondering the same thing!

Congrats on the purchase, OP. Post pics when you can

 

amazing C63. Torque monster and good looks.

 

Congrat's on your purchase. I'll look forward to more of your thoughts and experiences after you've had it a little longer but the mean time as others have said.. how about some pics

 

NICE... and congrats!!!!

 

Congrats on the purchase!

 

I've always loved the C63, head-turning looks, and out of all 3 (or 4), the C63 appears to be the most underrated and under appreciated. It is an awesome sedan.

 

I dont think he bought a C63 for the reliability

 

I was a couple of signatures from getting the 2010 F, but the sales manager pissed me off. So I said I am done with Lexus (for now) and thought I would try something different. Found a great deal on this c63. So why not.

 

oh my! I just wet myself. So jealous! I want that to be my next car

 

If you don't mind me asking but how much did you pay?
