I didn't get white like i wanted, but i honestly am happy that the car isn't black and has xenons. The motor is the most important part of the car for me.


I will not tune it, as i have warranty, but i will do some minor cosmetics. I'm thinking about tinting the windshield, and wrapping the roof to give it some contrast. Then maybe paint calipers. Meanwhile post up pics of modded silver c63's! Can't wait to get this car.


Congrats on the new purchase...you think your exited now, just wait till you get it!

Tune the hell out of it man, so long as your dealer is tune friendly.

Most importantly, congrats!

Also, outstanding color combo choice. Admittedly, I'm biased.

Let's do it!! Count me in for two spots and it looks like we have two more in this thread alone, not counting you. I'm sure we can easily get 5 more Florida AMG drivers to attend.

PM me your email and I'll send you a ton of pics.

yeah they are just painted body color. There is a bulb in there, if you choose to leave it after you paint it will still light up amber at night. I just remove remove it from the reflector and tie it up in the bumper somewhere safe and dark so it does shine through.

Congrats and welcome to the club! Iridium Silver is a beautiful paint, it has hues of blue in certain shades and angles. The paint has great character. I am 100% biased, its hands down amongst the finest silvers in the industry. I searched for one for months before I found it at an out of city MB dealer.

Welcome to the addiction my friend
