So, after a few trial and error, I finally found a set of 18" rims that fit the C450. Attached are a few photos, wrapped in Michelin X-ice winter tires. As shown in the photo, I've installed an AMG badge in place of the C450, I really don't care if I offend any of the guys with the "real AMG"
Seems like the AMG badge will be standard in some countries

I have close to 2000 miles on my C450 and I have been shocked at how the performance of the car is improving. Hard to explain in words, but in the first month the engine was very tight, the transmission a little jerky at times, and the brakes were a bit grabby. But as the weeks go by the engine is noticeably smoother, and pulls much harder, with clean shifts from the trans. The brakes too have a better feel just in day to day driving. Part of this might be just me getting used to the car, but I know without a doubt the car is faster now than it was brand new. Hopefully it gets even better in the coming months!

Just passed 1400 mi. on mine and have noticed the same thing. Brakes were especially grabby and noisy. The problem fixed itself, now completely smooth and quiet. Can't tell so much about the speed as I pretty much followed the break in recs.

A question to all music geeks : can we have album pictures of MP3 music or could this only be visible when we copy music from iTunes ?
If we add a jpg in each music directory with MP3 does the system show the album pic?

texted the saleman 2 days ago to get an update on my order.
he said he's off on that day, said he gives me update when he goes back to work next day.
it's already 2 days, he still haven't text me. WTF. is he trying to ignore me or there's nothing new on my order?
I going to text him again next week to see what happen.

2016 C450 AMG Sport
Hey guys, just picked up my C450 this Monday and have been loving it. My only concern is with the reverse gear. When I put the car in reverse and let go of the brake pedal, the car does not move. It isn't until I push the gas pedal that the car starts to reverse. Is this normal with every other C450 or is it just with my car? Any feedback would be much appreciated.
