Well it's official, just picked up my C43 coupe from the dealership! Not the greatest photos, just snapped a couple quick ones with the phone, but more to come and hopefully a few videos once I get home on Sunday. Loving it so far... Might of switched it straight to sports+ lol... I just couldn't resist...

 

Congrats man. Looks amazing! Enjoy it!

 

Congrats Spud, it looks awesome! Did your dealer recommend to break it in at all? Also, are you planning on getting winter tires/rims?

 

Looks awesome, congrats man!

 

They never mentioned anything about break in... Winter tires are already on, factory rims will be my winters, then will be picking up some new ones for summer

 

Your winters are 19"? Can you tell me where you got them from, and how much they cost you?

 

Please do upload some exhaust sound videos!

 

Picked them up from tire rack, factory size

Literally the exact thing I'm doing. Same tires and will also be using my stock wheels as winter and upgrading the summer wheels next spring.

 

Congrats, enjoy the new ride!

 

So, I went to the link, and it said that it's unable to find a match for the selected pirelli tire..

Edit: nvm it worked lol

 

Welcome to the C43 coupe club

 

Looks great man... keep those photos coming!

 

Congrats! Test drove one yesterday and I tell you what, I was pleasantly surprised how well it drove. It had the performance exhaust on it and sounded very good.

 

Congrats on the car, and I see the sales person I deal with in the background lol. By the way there's a Facebook club for Mercedes enthusiasts in Alberta. It's called Mercedes Benz Club Of Alberta.

 

Spud, for the Sotto 3's are you just keeping a Slime tire patching kit and portable tire inflator on board?

 

Yep, exactly what I'm doing, still a little paranoid on that, especially in the winter, but also not my only vehicle so if I have to wait for a new tire at least I'm not stranded.

 

Love how the look of the car really changes at night!




I'll try to take some real photos today and maybe some video, but flying solo, so video might be tricky.

 

Love this! Looks so good.

 

Alright thought I pretty much ordered every option, anyone have an idea what the last open spot is for on the switch panel? lol



Heated AND cooled seats! And thankfully no blank switch! lol, also notice that it is possible to get cooled seats with the red stitched interior despite what the Canadian Mercedes site says



Was freezing cold outside today, so all you get are some bad garage pictures, don't mind the mess in there lol



Slightly better shot of the wrap job they did on the roof, with the back window tinted (35%) I think it looks really good, so glad that's what I went with in the end!

 

Here is the part for that switch block:



Which corresponds to:



Looking at all of the possible replacements for that switch block, A 205 905 41 51 has the most options and everything else is a subset (at least from the sedan and coupe standpoint). As far as I can tell, that last switch is blank. (Maybe it's for the cabriolet's roof )

 

Welcome! Mine is the same color and I love it. What are you plans for the vehicle? Any performance enhancements in the near future?

 

Nothing too crazy, maybe a tune... But waiting to get a feel from the service manager on how they are with warranty work and tunes lol

 

Spud, where the videos?! Cold start please haha

 

Sadly was pretty cold today, so no luck on the videos, and back to work for 10 days... So guess you'll have to stay in suspense lol, sorry
