C450 Exhaust - Not bad for a non AMG Mercedes. Definitely beats the 400.! Want to see what Eisenmann or Akrapovic come out with.

I would check-in with my sales rep but I am giving him a break since I have been PITA. I drove him nuts on changes before the vehicle went into production. The waiting game is a bit torturous. Hopefully not too much longer.

havent talked discounts yet. Ordered mine from Santa Barbara Auto Group. Have a good relationship with them so not really worried about it. Also, my dad has a 2016 S550 Hybrid coming around the same time so hoping for a good discount since its 2 cars.

I'm the 3rd quarter of September build and my dealer called me today to ask if there were any changes I wanted to make as nothing can be changed after today. I seriously thought about adding HUD, but decided I'm spending enough and just left my order as is.

I'm sure HUD is great. It's just not in the cards for my build.........

All season/all weather tire only belongs on C300. You pay for C450 to enjoy the performance bits, dont cheap out on the most important part of any car, tires.
4*0 or 2*0 is still 0, 4matic or not buy right tires for right temp.

Also, on tires, its not snow tire, its winter tire.
People keep associate snow tires with the white stuff but its temperature, not snow you are guarding against.
All season is really a 3 season tire with ****ty performance.
All weather is the same except you can get away with mild winter.

Guys, just to bring the thread back to life.
I just finalized my order and price for my 2016 C450 AMG today at the Mercedes Benz of Fort Washington in Pennsylvania. From what I am told, I am the first pre-order for the C450 on the east coast as I have placed this order in end of May, before any pricing was released. Pricing was finally released this past week and I went in to finalize the specs and options of my c450.
I ordered a Polar White with Sport Cranberry Red Interior with Linden Wood trim
-Panorama sunroof
-Full LED and bi-Xenon Lighting package
-Rearview Camera
Pricing are as follows:
Base 50800
Leather interior package 2480
Lighting package 800
rearview camera 460
panorama roof 1480
Destination charge 925
Total 56945
I was able to receive $3000 off plus wheel locks and all weather MB weathertechs thrown in as freebies.
Car wont be ready until 3rd-4th week of August and Im sure I won't see it until after Labor Day but boy! AM I EXCITED!! Hope this thread helps!
Oh and I am spec'ed to have the 5 spoke AMG wheels 18'' BLACK. not sure which ones they are, if anyone can help me shed some light on that, much appreciated!!

I would think that the early September deliveries should be at "B4" and have a VIN by now.

I avoided my salesperson since he clearly is annoyed by my emails by now.
I spoke to a sales concierge who checked with the inventory manager. My vehicle is in production and should arrive no later than the end of September. I tried obtaining the scheduled production completion date but had no luck. I did not bother even asking about a VIN #. I will check back in Mid-September to get an update.

I just checked, and the build in front of mine (with a 9/2 date) is still in B3. There are a bunch of builds in B4 (which is "2 DAYS TO COMPLETION" and also the point in the build that you get your VIN), so hopefully tmoney has his VIN.
I don't think any builds are B5 yet ("PRODUCTION COMPLETE").

Was just notified that our build was moved up from mid November to mid October as they lifted the constraint on Designo Diamond White paint. We just added Designo Saddle Brown interior package a few days ago. Invoice pricing.

When I initially started playing around with the different builds, I configured the Platinum White/Black designo without the performance seats... here is what it looked like:
P62 designo Platinum White/Black Leather Package $4280
P62 : designo Package
U25 : MB Illuminated Door Sill Panels
401 : Heated and Ventilated Front Seats
877 : Ambient Lighting
975 : designo Platinum White/Black Nappa Leather
So, either the vented seats made up the $400 difference or they dropped the price of the designo (or the Saddle Brown is cheaper than the Platinum).
