Default Old Member- New Car with New Pics

Hey Guys,

I've been a member of this forum for a loooong time. Had a pretty sweet Jaguar X-Type which I handed over to my brother so it's still in the family. About 7 months ago I moved over to MBworld, a Mercedes Benz forum.

The car is a MB C32 AMG.

Ever since I bought the car I've had the mod bug BAD!

Right now the car has about 407HP, and 386 FT. LBS. of torque. It's quick lol

What do you think?

You should get spacers for the wheels!

What tune did you go with?

Naah, no spacers for me. The car rides perfectly. I don't want to have to worry about going over bumps and having my tires rub on the wheel well. No rubbing or anything of that nature on this car. I've been there and done that with the Jaguar.

All performance mods for the car were done with Eurocharged products.

Eurocharged is gaining a lot of ground and popularity among the MB world. Excellent gains/cost ratio. Glad to see you're enjoying the C32. Great little engine that. I had the N/A version in my ML320 - such a well engineered thing (aside from the 90* angle thing...).

Seriously though, as a fellow car enthusiast I'm happy for you if you're happy with it.

Do you still have those Type R brake calipers?

I'm not usually crazy about the C Class...... But its really hard to argue with 400+ hp in just about anything. Liking the Brabus wheels on it

Thanks Jim! Naah, Jaggyx will suit me just fine! Eventually, I might just end up with another Jaguar and will definitely be back!

Yeah, they actually are. More so with boosted cars. The E55 guys are making crazy horsepower while the C63 guys car more about handling and beating those M3's!

Actually, there's tons of money in aftermarket parts on this car lol

I've gone for a completely different kind of style with this car. I wanted it to look, hmm how do I was this... More grown up. I made the Jaguar a " Look at me! " kind of car but I wanted this one to kind of just be low key. Granted I failed at that because this exhaust setup is nuts!

HAHA, I knew someone would say this! What Type R calipers though? I never changed anything out in the brake department.

You know neither was I, until I saw this car for sale. Then I drove it and was convinced I needed it. It only had the stock 349BHP at the time but it was still enough to put a smile on anyone's face lol

Thanks, I love the Brabus wheels too!

Somebody on here had a set of R Brembo calipers that they were looking to put on their car but after hearing how much it would cost for custom brackets they changed their mind. I thought it was you, sorry.
