C63 Plates

dpiette · 12-16-2011, 09:05 PM

Coming home from downtown today saw a C63 with the custom plate:

M3 LOL

That made me laugh. I was turning right and he was going straight (for you in Houston I was turning west on Elgin from Milam) and I gave him a thumbs up.

He lowered his window, and I did mine, I said "I like you plate!"

He said "I like your car!"

Nice!

its a stupid plate especially since it loses to m3 in every head to head competition. guess thats all he thinks about is M3

Doesn't the C63 beat the M3 in straight line with near 2x as much torque?

Is that the one with the HPF turbo that's making well over 500whp? If so, it's well deserving of the plate. With that power it could probably whoop any AMG out there thet is unmodded or lightly modded

Great story, just shows that motorheads of any type recognize and acknowledge fine vehicles.

a few folks

I saw that guy a couple of months ago exiting westheimer on 610 and we both raced to westheimer street and eventually gave each other a nod and peddled off.

Yup, to the 99% owners of these cars that just drive them on the street. From a roll or stop light the M3 will lose 10 times out of 10.

So yes the C63 owner probably laughs when he pulls away from M3's on the road.

I'll keep an eye out for this car. A couple of months ago I saw a modified A4 with a CA plate that read H8BMW. I followed him towards Mexico and gave him a lil' something to hate......we gave the customary high beam flash and I headed back across the boarder........Phil
