No S550 had AMG badges on the back from the factory, no matter what AMG package they had.

Question: on my BMW I could use Google maps and the directions would filter through my speakers. Does that not happen in the MB? I can not figure that out.

Question: My car came with chrome handles. My car color is iridium. I saw on the C300, red car the handles are red with some chrome down the middle.

I also have night package. How can I get iridium silver colored handles? I also have comfort access; I'm going to assume the handles will be expensive then.

Did anyone get handles the color of their car for the C450?

If MB decided to put AMG BADGES on the sides it means the car deserves it for a reason. You can do as you want and debadge but the car is anyway reworked by AMG engeneers even if the engine isnt built at Affalterbach.

Finally, that steering wheel looks like the AMG performance wheel available on the C450 as an option...
ahhhh, I think your right. I didnt listen to the sound either. thats def not a 5.5liter exhaust. thats the 3.0 liter POPOPOP

you dont want to do this IMO. the wood grain from the console is cut from on piece. if you just replace the panel, the wood grain will not match up!

Wrong again, the C63 have a 4.0 liter. in fact the C63 never had the 5.5, that was the E63 and larger. The old C63 had the N/A 6.2

Sharp remark. I thought about this in fact and it's the reason why I prefer to stick a badge rather than replace the part.
I have to see what accessory I would buy besides the rear carbon spoiler. The dealer gave me a 500€ credit on top of the discount and I will look at what stuff I could buy or I will just use it to pay the vehicle ID card.
