Anyone have the OEM rubber floor mats in their C450? Are they available with AMG badging?

I came from the Subaru STI crowd and I've played with some tuned new ones and they can't hold a candle to my car stock also this car is way more sure footed than my older BMW that I had.

Just met another person buying a C450 a couple days ago. Dont know whether I should be happy or sad that the c450 is getting more and more popular.

Bonjour!

Just arrived in Paris yesterday for two nights and realized that there are a ton of mercedes cabs especially e-class and c-class even saw a couple of tesla eco-cabs!

Did not see a single C450, will you be the first in Paris with one, Bourne?

Here are some of my paris pics i took yesterday:



Merry Christmass everyone!

My dad snagged me a set for Christmas. No AMG logo

also he picked up the AMG valve stems that I have on order as well.

may look around for some AMG badges to put on the floor mats.

Thanks. Just to clarify: do you mean the Pirelli RFT stock tires or did you change them to the Pirelli RFT sottozeros

We did visit the Galeties Lafayette on Boulevard Haussman and the window displays are amazing. We are staying at the Pullman and are very lucky to have front row seats for la tour eiffel. We will be departing tomorrow at 7am on the TGV for Nice where we will spend 4nights and I have already reserved a W205 C300 for 3 nights then pick up a GLA-class in Italy for my roadtrip into Milan and celebrate NYE there

Nice pics BradyKing!
Debating here going to test-drive the GLA 45 AMG w/ Performance Exhaust and Dynamic Plus suspension) but also just got interested in the similar price range C450 AMG.

It seems the C450 comes with a lot of things standard? but the exhaust has some improvement compared to the 45 AMG Performance exhaust sound. is it me?

I also cant find any videos on youtube showing how fast the car does 0-60 either and i agree with the other folks who mentioned on the 340 being faster.

Very good plan and good car choice. You're a real MB fan.
I rented a V class last week to drive my kid with hers 3 cousins. Very comfortable seats on the back but I'm burning to get my c450 I hope a week after NYE.

I personally feel the GLA is. Piece of sh.t. It is no comparison. The fit and finish is low quality. I think it was built for low entry USA model. The 45 version is probably fun to drive on a test drive but that's not what you want for a daily driver.

Trust us all on this forum and get the c450.

I am running reps of the c63 optional forged wheel off the bay. I wanted to keep the factory look but add a little aggression. Took a risk on the fitament but worked out. Offset is 35mm, 20x8.5 and 20.9.5

I think one of the car mags came out with 4.5 to 60, however, a few gentleman on here have done independent testing clocking times quicker than that, the fastest being 4.2.

Yes the 340i is lighter and more of that performance oriented straight line get up and go. The overall package of the C450 though poops on BMW in my opinion, interior, aesthetics, exhaust note, exterior etc

Not a big fan of the black spoiler personally, but the forged black rims look fantastic with the polar white. I may need to look into getting these myself and take the 19" multispokes and use them as my winter wheels.

BMW 3 series wagon
Newb on this forum with a probably rhetorical question. I'm guessing that MB will never bring the wagon version of the C450 to the States? Might still consider the 4dr sedan next year. From what I can tell, it has fittings in the roof for cross bars. I need them for a secure mount for hauling my kayak around. The thing about a wagon, however, is that there's a greater fore/aft spread on the bars, which helps with long sea kayaks... and I have a soft spot for wagons.
