I apologise if there is a post that already covers this perspective, however I was unable to locate one.
However, my inquiry just pertains to the engine and does not concern the body or year of the vehicle.
I am lucky to finally receive a bonus that will allow me to purchase a C63.
In the United Kingdom, a budget ranging from 25,000 to 35,000 pounds will allow you to purchase a reasonably priced vehicle with either a 204 horsepower engine with a top speed of 6.2 seconds, or a 205 horsepower engine with a top speed of 4.0 seconds, both equipped with twin turbochargers.
Please provide your opinion on each of the following options: being in favour of M156, being in favour of M177, or having no preference (=) for either.
Dependability (including the gearbox)
Price of necessary components, if required
Analysis of stock market returns
Comparison between the Perf pack/507 and the M177 engine.
Response Docility/Tractability
Is there a high-quality exhaust system available for the M177 engine?
and maybe the most crucial aspect Which of the two options do you believe will have a higher value for collectors in 10 years?
I am seeking your assistance in making prudent financial decisions.
Thank you very much.
