my regret is I didn't pay attention to "air balance package"

I guess I can buy aftermarket air ionic on amazon and spray the perfume manually.

I just regret i didnt get Air Balance package.
it' only 350$. that is nothing !
i stop reading after it said "Cabin fragrance system"
i dont need to pay no freaking 350$ for perfume.
i missed the part about the air purify ionic system.
just did a auto insurance quote. AllState with GAP 3126$ / year, AAA 2856$ /year. damn ! haha. maybe it' not a good idea to get a car that expensive. haha

Wow, those numbers are sick.. My CA policy was 1850$, which was pretty much all the tops coverages (due to other obligations)..and I thought THAT was high.

Just got a quote for mine... only $50 more per year ($800 Canadian, total - equivalent to $580 USD) than my Acura TL SH-AWD was... Not bad considering the difference in cost of the vehicles... You guys seem to be paying a LOT for insurance... Might be a US vs Canada thing, given the culture of litigation in the U.S...

Mercedes C450 (soon)
Sorry if this has been asked in the thread before, but I just signed up and didn't see it.....
Is there a way to put the carbon/black spoiler on later? Is it something built into the car or can it be modified?
I'd rather purchase from a dealer (about 5 within 20 miles of me) and so many have what I want (color, interior, panorama, etc) but not have the carbon spoiler. I'd prefer to have the car in the next month as opposed to 2 months if I wait a few weeks and build/order it online.
Sorry for being the newb, but I'm curious and thanks for the help!

Hey guys...just completed my muffler delete this morning. Replaced the mufflers with straight pipes and left the resonator in. It's pretty loud. Have the vivid racing tune Juicebox going in tomorrow. Check out the YouTube video if you want to hear what it sounds like. For $100 it's pretty darn good. It's pretty loud when under throttle on the freeway but I think I can live with it. Other option is to install two resonators where the mufflers were if I think it's too loud. I'll keep you posted. What are your thoughts?

I ordered my diamond silver W/ night pack about a month ago, and I opted for the standard mbtex/dinamica seats because I've always liked the alcantara, particularly in the winter. Does anyone have any opinions about the quality of the leatherette and the overall feel of the stock upholstery?
Also, I'm looking over my build sheet and noticed it doesn't state red seat belts. Does it need to be specified? Or does ordering the mbtex/dinamica with red accents automatically include the red belt? My dealer told me to expect a May delivery.

The red seat belts are code Y05. The order guide lists them as a $500 option. There are some builds early in this thread where folks have listed them but without a price, so I'm not sure if there is any config where the price is different (the very first batch of cars had some different interior options than what became available....for example, some came with the leather without the P2). I would check with your dealer ASAP if you want them, at this point you can probably add them, and the dealer will confirm the cost.

First time post. I have been reading with interest this thread as collect my C450 on Thursday. I was just looking at the Swiss Mercedes Benz website and noticed this offer:
http://www.mercedes-benz.ch/content/...er/c43amg.html
Seems that officially the C450 will become the C43 Amg, but only a name change. Have to admit that I am slight annoyed though.
Strangely I cannot find mention of the car in the Mercedes Car Configurator - it still mentions C450...

No, it only mentions the estate/wagon version. I cannot find any further mentions of the C43 anywhere else on the website.
Badges: I would like to see the badges. There doesn't seem to be any other changes.
Anyone think that the exhaust looks different?
