Although I did just buy a new camera so I will attempt to take some better photos when I have the time :-)

W205 250cdi 4matic, amg ext/int, 485 suspension
So i assume it is just the standard suspension (code 485) with amg package looking strange, this configuration being available in Europe.
I am disappointed by this but I am looking forward to leverage the increased ground clearance

Kneel down by the tyre/wheel and have a look at the top of the suspension area above the tyre. You might be able to spot a plastic puck that has been inserted into the strut. They are quite common - various manufacturers use them. One of the pre-delivery steps should be to remove them from the car.
This thread from a VW forum has some pictures, though the exact appearance may differ with your C Class (which looks very nice, by the way!):

I'd ask one of the technical guys about a transport mode, not the sales person. You're lucky if they know where the doors are.

I just installed 18" AMG reps on my car today for winter mode, temporarily replacing the 19"s and my car sits just like oachim's car. It's very disappointing, especially considering Mercedes nailed the ride height of the W204.

I just got my C300 Sport RWD with 18' AMG wheels in the US and there is a huge gap between the top of the tires and the bottom of the wheel well. In front it about 2.5 inches and the rear is even larger.
I can't see any transport blocks or anything on the struts/springs.
Is this normal? My 06 BMW 325 with Sport Package and 17' wheels has a tiny gap (about 1 inch).

I would really appreciate if you could share more on the other thread - ground to fender height - about your setup ( suspension code ) as well as some photos with your car using 18" and 19" wheels. Do you really see an improvement when using the 19" wheels ?
