Isn't it obvious we can't answer the question?

You are worrying about nothing. How can anyone make a fake C63? What exactly do you think would be fake about it? Use you reason.

Pay no attention Leewda. We're all fair game on here. Its a great forum, all the better for the occasional banter. I was miffed for a minute or so when I couldn't find the purported builder of my E55 anywhere, then had a pie and forgot all about it. Just tried again and he does exist. Will still have another pie though.

Belated welcome to the forum, by the way

Cheers matey!
No, love the banter myself! Just niggles when someone feels they have to pipe up and speak for everyone else just because they have a few thousand posts, and i'm new here. I was only asking a question ffs! If you dont know the answer, or dont want to participate - stroll on?

Just 'cause the 63 is new doesn't mean the engine was built especialy for you , it could have been on the shelf for months , so the builder could well have left , retired or died many moons ago .
