I used to have a c63 chipped with kleemann 510hp flash and it was FAST for such a small little car...
But i always wanted longtubes for the car as it comes with log type manifolds that are worst in design then the ls3 manifolds (they dont have any tube lenght...they merge immediately)
They have proven like our car to have a perfoct for power stock catback
But theres only 2 or 3 companies that does longtubes and they AVERAGE 10 GRANDS!!!
MHP offer the offroad ones for 9000$ and catted 10 000$ they look like arh http://www.modernhorsepower.com/c63-amg-exhaust.htm

That's crazy expensive. I'd rather pay the Corvette tax than the AMG tax any day.

This proves even more why American cars are much better to own and mod out

That is high. Always that way with higher end cars it seems. Pays to play.

Here is another example. People buy aftermarket seats for there cars and it they cringe at 3000/4000 dollars for the pair.

Well, I put a set of Lamborghini seats in my Corvette. I was looking to change the cover on them and went to Automobil Lamborghini and I would have to buy the entire seat to do so. Okay no big deal right...

EACH SEAT COST $15,000 dollars.. and people wonder why I make sure anyone that rides with me do not have pens in there pockets and/or anything that could injure the seat...

3 years ago I had to install a set of Tubi's on a 430 F1, they were $23,000. retail...................
