Where are the C63s's built?

NARCOGP

Ordered c63s Coupe in September for build in Dec.
However asked the dealer to check on status and he advised no progress and that order is "frozen" not sure what that means?

Im a BMW order fan, once you place an order you can track its progress from factory to dealership so you never need to call the dealership for an update.

First it was going to be the 30th Dec, then 23rd, now 6th Jan...

Given how icy, foggy and horrible the UK is at the moment I'm happy to wait.

Order c coupe 43 amg on Nov 27th, delivery date Feb 28th! hopefully that won't change!

NYCSoiL

I ordered mine on November 23rd, got confirmation that it was build already. Should be here in 2-3 weeks

My delivery date has slipped from 6th March to 17th March, boooo. I'm not certain when the build slot is, it was originally mid Feb.

**Update** ... C63S now supposed to go into build first week of February, with build completion February 11 .. shipping to West Coast Canada and est. arrival mid March

See63esS

I heard from my dealer that my February build was moving up a bit as well

emanisem

where are you from???? I hope same thing happens to me too !! lol

See63esS

So Cal.

kck77

mine was originally March build .. then got bumped ahead to mid Feb build ... now it's the begging of Feb

Vagabondo

Ok, this is weird....I'm your fellow Canadian (Toronto) from a previous thread.

Earlier this week my dealer contacted me with details (earlier than first expected) as follows:
Production date: February 11
Planned delivery: March 27

Strange coincidence?

kck77

Are you a 63S or a 43?!

I think it makes sense .. will be on the same boat I imagine. If yours is expected March 27, there is no way mine will be here mid march .. maybe mid April if that's the case by the time it transits across Canada on the train .. unless mine catches an earlier boat, which makes no sense .. any which way, I'm not in a hurry .. we are having an unseasonable cold winter, freezing my ***** off over here.. salt everywhere, so I'm ok for April

Vagabondo

Thing is my original order was a c63 (non-s) with an eta of late April (but no real dates ever mentioned). I decided to upgrade to c63s a couple of weeks ago (thanks to all you cats making me so jealous)...then the call from my dealer last week with the specifics. Makes me think the S change made for a quicker delivery.
And yes, as excited as I am about getting the car asap, the idea of driving this thing here in late march is a bit too ambitious. And we ALWAYS get a bad ice-storm here in early April before things thaw out.
Let's keep each other posted.

Uga Uga

I hope you get your car before the new road tax starts in April.

Hey, which one did u order 63 or 43? I ordered my 43 from thornhill dealership around end of Nov, i still expect mine around end of Feb!

Vagabondo

Hey bud,
C63s - from Thornhill as well!

Technically I ordered a c63 (non S) back in sept with very rough eta of "around April". I changed to c63S a few weeks ago and dealer called last week with the more solid dates. There are a few of us Canadians here all expecting delivery over the next few months including our friend in Vancouver.
I wonder how many shipments they bring into Canada by quarter/month?

My wife's C43 sedan order was placed in the system November 12. So far the dealer has been unable/unwilling? to confirm any dates...

Back in Nov before I confirmed, the SA was confident it would arrive beginning of Feb. The lease on our Lexus expires Feb. 1.

I have a totally different experience from that other German car manufacturer. The build schedule on my new Turbo S Cabriolet has been fully laid out, with dealer delivery scheduled for Apr. 19.

Bluetonic

My first collection date was 30th Dec,
then it moved forward to 23rd Dec.
Then back to dealer delivery 3rd Jan,
now UK docks 11th dealer delivery 18th Jan.

On the plus side my dealer has given me a E350d AMG line to use until my car turns up. Nice car, but not my type of car.

Fingers crossed delivery will be in Jan as I'm going to be out of the country most of Feb and will be unable to drive the car as it will be sat at an airport...

Maybe that's why my MB SA hasn't given me any firm dates.
I've included a similar clause in the sales contract. They've agreed to supply a "comparable car" if mine doesnt arrive by Feb 1. when our Lexus lease surrenders.

The C63S coupe is a rare beast in Canada ... Here in Vancouver/BC there are 8 MB dealers, all of which are corporate owned except one; there is 4 MB dealers in Alberta, 2 in Saskatchewan and 1 in Manitoba .. My SA said each of these dealers receive very very few C63S coupes; said well under a 100 total units across these 4 provinces for all of 2017. My particular dealer has only delivered 2 so far. When I first went to inquire about the car mid November, between the 7 corporate stores in BC, they had 6 allocated C63S for Feb/March build, I went home to crunch some numbers ... he called 2 days later and said there was one left; that was the same week they started running the commercial for the car. He mentioned there will be one more allocation for April build, May/June delivery, and that would be it for 2017. Having one of these here, your in a very small club which is a nice perk when spending $100k.... should help resale a little too, not being very many. Vancouver is loaded with luxury autos, and even to this day I have only seen one of the past generation C63 coupes on the road.

UPDATE: Delivery date got delayed to end of Feb now, and they want me to pay a price increase of $8500

So i managed to get them to find me a landed car kinda similar to what i had ordered, i got it at the old price and it is still a 2017 car, pick up on Friday when i arrive back in SA.

A bit annoyed that i didnt get all my options and that the car i chose has the Drivers Pack that costs $2000, which i think removed the top speed limiter (complete waste of money in my opinion, HUD or performance seats would be better).

Anyway pics to follow on Friday
