My New 2012 C63 Coupe P031 -- YaaHoo!
Ok,
On the drive home ive already noticed some major improvements over my 2011 C63.
Transmission: Much smoother and feels like more power is getting strait to the ground.
Engine: Feels just as strong as my eurocharged/kleeman set up on my 2011
Engine note: Not as loud as my old car but I was getting tired of the extra noise anyway.
Steering Feel: Much improved. Feels much more precise. Now I now what all those M3 guys are talking about.
Suspension: Feels more planted and soaks of ruff pavement much better than the previous model. Feels like you have a set of KW v3s on there.
Seats: Much more livable. They loosened up the grip a bit so you snug into the seat alot more comfortably.
Dash: Incredible improvement. Much more user friendly and looks alot less cheap.
Love the steering wheel too
Here are some pics

Wow! Very nice! Welcome to the club (joined myself today :P )
I agree with everything you said except the steering wheel. it bothers me that the "metal" part is actually just colored plastic...come on MB...

Beautiful car!! Makes me very anxious to get mine (which will be a twin of yours 
).
Seems like black with the two tone red/black interior and the P31 package is going to be a VERY popular combo

Not bad, can you post a pic of the front air dam piece with the air duct openings. The interior red is fire truck red, wish there was some darkness too it..

Congrats! Didn't you just get an 2011? You leasing? You trading? You pulling money out of your ***? You didn't even break her in yet and you went and got another one? Very nice.....! 
My opinion: I still hate the new front, its too rectangle and straight line from front apron to apron, no pronounced grill and definition. Lights feminize it too much. Side by side the 08-11 is far more sporty and aggressive looking. The LED lights just look sooooooo aftermarket tacked on over the black mesh...
Seats are cool for sure. 18" don't fill the wheel well good enough and even 19s just don't look adequate for some reason??! Maybe its because the car is coupe'd and smooshed and not longer and the front isn't as pronounced or lower standing?? The car just looks stubbier and higher...?
Inside is cool but I am still not drooling over the new design...
But congrats on a new car. Enjoy!
