My 2016 C220d AMG - Cavansite Blue
Hi everyone! Just want to share my W205 that i bought on 30th December.
It's a C220d (i would love to have a 43 or 63AMG but my wallet doesn't allow that) and i drove a lot of miles, so the mpg for me it's very important.
Some of the main equipments:
Cavansite Metalic Blue
Light Grey Leather Interior
AMG Package
7G Tronic
Air Matic suspension
Led Headlights
I'm in love with the combination of the light grey interior with the exterior Cavansite Blue.
I already have some mods in mind like changing the chrome of windows trim to gloss black, some 19'' wheels, AMG rear diffuser (with quad exhaust tips), and some more...
I will post here as soon as i will get the mods done.

Solid ride, my friend 
Congrats!
Looks like you've got a quality plan for the aesthetic mods. That's the cool thing about the base end models, you may never get the exact AMG 63/43 look without extensive modification, but with just a few bits here and there, you can get damn close!

Very nice car! Congrats!
I wanted a diesel as well but it's not available in Canada (or the US). Can't even register one brought from Europe. The only option we have here is gas.

Congrats; as you mentioned you were looking at a few tweaks...
The 220d will chip up a little, (closer toward the 250d), the c250 is pretty much maxed out and boost and fuel chips do nothing for it. So that is worth considering.
The white seats look great, BUT suggest you get some carpro cquartz leather coating or similar to prevent / reduce dye transfer from jeans etc..... if not be ready to use a steamer and leather cleaner every few months..
and re the exhausts, the existing physical pipes route down toward the the floor before the rear bumper, the current exhaust trims are faux.. (and that's fine). Just keep in mind that with the new trims the downward exhaust will be visible as not exiting through the exhaust trims.. a quick mod to the factory muffler could sort this easily though...
Have fun..

Regarding remap the engine i will not move forward right now (maybe in an year do to all the warranties stuffs) but we can get off 215/220hp from there without any problem at all.
I already take a look at Cquartz products because i'm looking for some exterior detailing and i want to apply their ceramic coating. For the interior i think your suggestion will be great i should also use them leather coating.
Yes, when i move to that tips exchange i will make some mods on the exhaust to have a complete pipe until there.

I think it looks good. Little more sporty of a look
I wanna wrap my grill slats black and then wrap the little piece of the side skirts to match the silver front lip/rear diffuser. That would look good on your car too i think.
