Finally got my 2012 CLS.63

After 5 months of waiting and waiting !!! Finally here !!!

Interesting story: I was driving home yesterday, and I passed a transporting truck with 2 CLS63 and a few other new Benz, I thought to myself, Damn I wish that one was mine !!! Called my wife and complained about how other people might be getting their CLS63 before me !!! Few hours later, I got a call from my salesman and ask me to come in today to see my car !!! needless to say, I was in and out after 2 hrs !!!! Happy Camper !!! I had the CLS55 on their first release, and wow, what a difference !!!

Here's some quick cell phone pics, I will post up more pics next thread.

Thinking of ordering wheels tomorrow and removing my Res asap to get more exhaust note !!!

Any recommendation what wheels and style to get ?

Congrats she is a beauty enjoy her in good health, I too am waiting on my CLS time doesn't seem to want to pass lol, will get her by Thursday that's what's the dealer said anyways. I am fitting my car with Brabus wheels I think the last design they have is cool and gives an aggressive look they are Monoblock F's in Titan lackiert.

Beautiful car, enjoy in good health!
What kind of wheels are you thinking about picking up?
I would suggest the HRE P40's.

anyone knows the difference between Drive-Dynamic multicontour seat and multicontour seat? without premium pkg, both front seats are multicontour seats; with premium pkg, only driver seat is drive-dynamic multicontour. Any difference btw them as I thought there is also a little DYN button for multicontour seat?

Drive Dynamic seats will move the lateral lumbar supports for the driver seat only.

For example, if you are making a left turn, the right lateral lumbar support moves into position to help hold your body in place because G-forces are forcing your body to the right.

It can be set to gradually move or quickly move depending on driver's preference.

Mike nice car/pics, did you go to the place I told you about for the clear bra?

And you know my opinion on wheels... The CLS set up allows for a nice size lip---
