Actually, from the look of it -- its a C350 lux !!!

Notice the beige interior only available on the luxury models, AND the grey maple wood only on the C350!

Monday July 7th 8 PM BBC America will be showing the episode where they test the C63 well worth the watch.

It's identical to my C300 which has beige leather. I can't make out the wood. I see it does have the sport suspension button next to the rear shade button. But, it's a UK market model which is not what we get in the US.

It can't be a UK model, as it is left hand drive.

If you look closely you can see the reflection in the dark grey wood. It also sounds like a C350 when you press the "Go" button.
