Just Picked Up My New C250

Hey Guys,
Just picked up my new 2012 C250 Coupe. Lunar Blue with Almond Interior. Got a good lease on it as well - $520/mo (inclusive of tax) 12k mi/year for 36/mos $0.00 down. Well actually, 1st months payment, tags, fees = $809.00 out of pocket.

Here's what the car has:


The car:


So far its been a fun ride.

Thanks for posting...

It's weird, I don't see the S32 or 218 listed as options in this brochure.

Guess the only way to get the real set of available options is from the dealer.

The Comand and rear view camera option are part of an incentive MB is offering because the coupe is a new model. I don't know how long it will be discounted to only $1400, but it is at least half price. The Multimedia package will replace it when they offer it.

I wasn't planning on getting it but the only cars available with th Olof ombination I wanted had it included. Turns out it is a nice option and I have no regrets.

The S32 and 218 basically is the "Multimedia Package". I have all of this in my car:
- Rear view camera
- In-dash DVD/CD Player and SD memory card reader
- Enhanced Voice Control
- Navigation 7-inch high-resolution color-LCD screen Gracenote® Media Database, including album cover art
- 10GB Music Register
- SiriusXM Traffic and Weather

It also has the:
- iPod®/MP3 Media Interface
- Media interface cable

As Ralawren mentioned, I basically got the Multimedia Package for $1390 instead of the $2790 price listed for that package.

The multimedia package has a 6 disc CD changer, but that accounts for only $400 (difference between single CD and 6 CD comand packages). So I find the pricing of the multimedia package really, really weird...why would someone overpay by $800 for exactly the same functions.

Comand 6-Disc (1330) + Rearview Camera (460) = Multimedia package (2790). The math is not correct. May be they have a typo and multimedia package should really be 1790 instead of 2790.

My window sticker says option S34 Comand 6 Dis Package is $11330, same as Anoop. However, I still think the price difference between Multimedia and Comand is primarily an incentive to get cars out on the street. That is what my sales rep told me and it makes a lot of sense to me.

My Arctic White, Almond MB Tex MSRP with just the two options - S34 and 218 was $45,035 including $875 for freight.
