C63 BS Buyer
I just found out that I lost my allocation for the C63 BS. I gave two deposits and was told that I had an allocation secured. I am now next in line if someone cancels but I am not to hopefull. I am pissed off to say the least but all I want is the car. Sorry guys I don't want to rehash the details of what happened as I am still quite upset.
Having said that if anyone hears of one available in Canada or the US I am a buyer. If anyone needs/wants to sell theirs I am a buyer (I know that is unlikely given the cars have just been delivered). Help would be appreciated as I was hoping to get the car for the summer. I do understand that these are all longshot but like I said I have to try.

First off, I am very sorry to hear that, I would have been quite upset as well, probably would have cried.
This must mean less then 70 cars coming to the states, and I must have been right, 26 cars. . .
Anyone else having probs with thier allocation ? I just got my car on Friday.
I suggest if you are having issues, to write an email to the CEO of MBUSA, I have his email address and info, but I will not post publicly, shoot me a PM and I will FWD the info and se if we can get your car back on track.

This just disgusts me. I am in Ottawa and as you probably already know, I did cancel my BS order as my delivery date was pushed to July from the promised April. Anyway, you know the story, I cancelled the BS, and got another car, so my allocation was available, then another friend of mine in Ottawa cancelled his order and went with the SLS Roadster, so just at our dealership there were two cancelled. My dealer tried to keep the allocations and switching names for those cars but MB Canada got wind that both cars were cancelled for SLS's and they took back those allocations immediately.

How long ago were your orders cancelled? Just wondering if they should have gone to me as I have been promised the next allocation?

We both bailed on our orders towards the end of march, I took delivery of the SLS on the 3rd of April, so I dont know if that is in your time frame of broken promises.

Sorry to hear about ur situation Canadian fellow, it looks like the BS has been nothing but poor management. All kind of delays or ppl receiving wrong orders.. I would expect a lot more for such an expensive car/company. Hope you find ur right car, good luck!

The BS I originally ordered (cancelled) is still available in So Cal / Penske Motors in West Covina. Check them out. Obsedian Black / Carbon Fiber / Matte Black Wheels. $118K I think.

Your dealer in Ottawa wasn't supposed to get an allocation because it wasn't an AMG Performance Center, hence you got the runaround. Another buddy of mine in Victoria got the exact same runaround and was finally told they're not getting one earlier in the year because they're not an APC.
What's baffling is that your dealer actually got 1 C63 BS in, the joyride car. I'm curious how that came about...

If all BS were spoken for then that's just too bad but so many members here already chimed in with BSs they are seeing in dealers. Anyways.. GL OP on finding your car

Hey Nick, I had asked you in the PL but didn't see a response.

I hope someone from AMG is reading this thread and they make note of your dealer. Exactly the kind of business they don't want. Good luck in your search. When I was hunting for a car a in early mid April, there were at least 3 available, two at sticker and one used one at 10k over. Check DuPont registry as well if you haven't already.

Well, lets just say that my dealer which is a non AMG Performance Centre is one of the largest AMG sellers that is a non amg perf ctre, so they were alloted by the AMG rep in Canada these three allocations, up until I cancelled I was still promised this allocation repeatedly and to reconsider not cancelling this order. BTW, I dont recall the question on the PL so I do appologize, I normally dont have a brain cramp but I probably did. Anyway, to bad for shegelman as he was interested in the BS for a long time, I hope he does find one.
