2015 C400 4 Matic
New C400 owner
Hey everybody. My fiance and I just purchased our first Mercedes today, a C400 4 Matic. We fell in love with the car the second our eyes layed upon it.
I also have a 2012 WRX and have been toying around with that for a while now. I had it protuned and am very happy with it pushing out stage 1 power through a Cobb Accessport.
Anyways had a few questions and was hoping to get some answers.
1. I read up on Burger tuning offering a stage 1 harness. I thought the price is pretty cheap, but have no clue about tuning these cars. Can anybody give me some pointers or advice for a stage 1 car?
2. I'm pretty subtle when it comes to exterior mods. Outside of wrapping the chrome or adding a rear truck/roof spoiler is there anything out there that is pretty affordable that will set this monster apart form other Mercs?
3. I read that BMW has been constantly putting out ecu updates on their newer cars, improving performance and mpg. Is this something we can expect from Mercedes?
All aside, any specific new owner maintenance or operational tips would also be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

You're not getting any replies because there isn't much information yet on any of the questions you asked 
You've probably already found the one or two threads on tuning, which is still in development with no real good information on timetable yet. Hopefully, we'll see the level of activity on mods and whatnot go up when the AMG drops.

Thanks for that. I should've known better. Anyways, I'll stay up on the tuning threads and hope some cool things come out
