Thanks man!
Mine is scheduled for an early October build with a late October delivery.
If the surround view is going to be January (meaning most likely a late January early February delivery), I am thinking that I will most likely bag it. I love the option, but I don't really feel like waiting 3 extra months.

It looks very cool but my sales rep indicated that it is not that necessary for a C-Class just the bigger cars like the GL-Class and the S-Class. 
Perhaps I will get it with my next MB.

C450
Likewise
Just ordered my 450 a few days ago. Salesman says it will be built in 'the third decade' of September for a late October delivery. Options include Driver's Assist, Leather, Parktronic, and Multimedia. White over black. Very excited to be moving up to the Merc.

I can't wait to see one in person. He didn't say anything about when he expects to see one in the showroom?

1st Look
Thanks! He wasn't sure himself. All he's been told is September. I've been haunting Youtube (as well as here) but all I see there is static shots from the Detroit Auto Show and the same looks at the unveil in Portugal. Just have to wait.

I think we have one August delivery:
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 am envious of those of you getting one of these fine autos. For me I simply could not justify the large price delta on a lease between the two based on historical Mercedes treatment of C400.
I placed order today for $57,000 BMW 340i x-drive that is pretty well loaded for about $1000 over invoice.

Last I heard that my ordered vehicle will be delivered to the dealer in early September in time for the official launch. After the launch they will release the vehicles for purchase.
I am expecting the car before Labor Day being that I had a deposit on the car on 1/1215 with the official word announced at the North American International Auto show.
The first 1000 miles are going to be difficult
being that you are not supposed to exceed 55 mph to break the engine in. It sounds like tmoney or myself will be the first ones out of the gate.

Don't over baby the engine. Alusil bore with MOS2 coated rings make these units quite hard to beak in. Do not change the run in oil early.
Enjoy!

Yes, Low RPM high torque ~ Go too slow in a higher gear!! Let the engine rev freely without stress!

It is a floor model so I did not have muchchoice for options; it was either this one or wait until Jan 2016 delivery, wasnot really an option for me. It comes with the parking package, safety package,full LED, electric mirrors, obsidian black metallic and upgraded entertainment.
