They are talking about the trunk lip spoiler, its standard on C350's, optional on C300's.

But I really like that 7 twin-spoke stock more than the 18" 5 twin spoke AMG - there are too many of those 18" AMG around!! making the 7 spoke a rarity.

I was told by the dealership for the 4matic, they don't upgrade the wheels because it's 4matic.

It's just temporary until my temporary dealer tags expire. They are just fixed using velcro and mounted in that location to hide the existing screw holes.

That is kind of cool though driving around with European tags. Everyone will know your car came straight from Europe specially made and be impressed.

Picked it up this morning, with 15Km's on it ... so far we've driven an extra 150 or so

Kinda dirty now, so please forgive the dirt.

Hope you enjoy.

Congrats Marakbai - so you ended up going with Calcite White, I thought you went with Silver. The spoiler and chrome inserts look sweet!

Yeah, actually it was a choice bet the White or Obsidian, so decided on White

I did see a sweet Palladium when I went to pick up my car ... awesome

Thanks peabers, I'm sooooo happy with the car (still trying to figure out how to get my driving lights to be like in your avatar though ... the knob thing is kinda confusing to a German newbie) ...

I think the chrome handles make it look distinctive, especially as TO gets flooded with C's. So far people seem to respond well to them as well ... really adds some nice dimension to the side view.

So far one of the most interesting comments is the car looks like a Tuxedo ... White, Black accents, Sharp and Sleek, and of course, Bow-Tie (Star) in the middle. Kinda works!

And yes, -10 last night, but that was after a drive on the 400 ... I literally just got home when I took the pic. Hoping for better weather on my frist day to work with it tomorrow.

I like the lower spoiler better, though the paint doesn't seem to perfectly match.

They're the same, or should be ... I think it's just the angle of the pics ...if you notice peabers trunk looks more curved upward than mine. The spoiler better be OEM!!! I bought it from my dealer, and they did the paint... I must admit in some (artificial) lights the paint does look different. I was going to ask my dealer about that ... at least I know it's not just primer (I hope)
