DELIVERY TIME!!!!
Hi all!
We finally took delivery of our C250 Coupe yesterday! It is in Obsidian Black with Sahara Beige leather and Vision Pack. I welcome any comments, good or bad lol. Apologies for the crappy phone cam pics, I will take some better shots when I get a chance to, enjoy!

In Aus we can have our cars optioned with the AMG sports package, we decided against it because, the car mainly being my mothers, we showed her one with the sports pack and she really couldn't spot the difference, although I tried explaining to her several times lol so for us it wasn't worth paying the extra amount so we just kept the standard kit here. The vision pack includes the xenon dynamic headlights, panoramic sunroof and harmon kardon premium sound system. On the C250's here, we have COMAND NAV as standard.

Congratulations Nuxi 
Awesome colour combination !!! love beige leather interiors
Interesting regarding the lower rear diffuser, the standard item has fins which look great, whereas the AMG item is flush, go figure
I'm getting an alternative one for my vehicle along with either twin or quad tips which should look much better than the uneven looking single exhaust tip outlet on the C180 and C250 variants

It's a great little beast, pity the AH didn't come to Aust. in the turbo variant, I was lucky enough to score one of the limited number of TS turbo convertibles (220) which came to Aust.
Hopefully your sister isn't too jealous over the beaut new C250 now residing along side

The previous model (TS) convertibles handling isn't so sharp stock but with the many modes mine has it now handles very well, it also now rides on 20" wheels which make it look totally awesome

Yeah, there's a guy who lives in my area that drives the previous model turbo 2 door coupe in electric blue. My sister may get to drive the C250 from time to time lol. For the past 4 days of ownership, its been fantastic. We got it delivered with about 40kms and over the weekend put on about 650kms, on Saturday we took it down to Sorrento/Portsea and on Sunday we went for another drive through Geelong and out to Portarlington. It's so smooth, and its fun getting used to all the gadgets!
Great to hear your enjoying the new C250 that's definitely what it's for
I'll most probably be bothering you and others when my time time comes to get to know the features side of it all, you guys will be way ahead of me on that one

It's actually called 'Arden blue' for that particular Astra Nuxi and it's a hatch, the coupe TS variant looks alot better but it was never delivered to the Australian market, pardon my correctness but I've been an Opel Aust. member and enthusiast now for nearly 10 years so I know most Opel models intimately and have owned a couple myself

I recently printed out some literature of the new C Class command system and it has lots and lots of features and capabilities to learn to use.
I'll have to also see if anyone else has the driver assist package which comes with all manner of features to try out

Nuxi I've spotted a new black C Coupe twice now in my area being driven by a lady, it might be your mothers 
If so we might be located in the same suburb LOL if not someone else already has one before me in my area

Same here, there is an apartment block around the corner from my place and there are two C180 coupes (black and tenorite grey). I can't for the life of me work out whether it's the same person who owns it. For a week or so before Christmas the grey one was exchanged for white. Whoever it is this person seems to have a number of these cars at their disposal, very envious!
