Finally picked up the badboy today!
By chance the dealer just happened to have my exact spec choice, brand new unregistered in the show room.
Sorted a good deal last weekend and pick her up one week later!
Premium Plus Pack.
Memory Pack.
19s & AMG PE.
The 👌👌👌

Absolutely loving it so far. The whole drivetrain is fantastic, the ride is actually excellent and superbly damped.
Can't get enough of the engine noise and PE even with short shifting during running in phase.
Can't imagine needing any more power than this.

Thanks guys , I'm absolutely loving it! It's so hard to resist flooring at and not exceeding 4500 rpm, engine & PE both just sound amazing. ! Especially for a turbocharged V6, some others like in the Alfa QF don't sound that great.

Ordered the C43 Facelift Grill and Star from Mercteil. Had it installed yesterday on my 2018.Very happy with the result. No camera angle issues like I had with an aftermarket C63 style grill

Talking Worth the wait

Excuse the terrible dealership photos, but I thought I would share a real photo of Emerald Green sooner rather than later

Absolutely in love with the color combo. It looks exceptionally rich in person and photos simply don't capture it well.

1) Love it!
2) I Drive a 2017 C43 Sedan. I test drove before but it had the 18’s on it. Then I pick up and the 19’s with run flats have a pretty rough ride. You say well dampened - really? Have they changed it that much or are you still just enjoying the power?
3) I want to order one if it really is well dampened. I am having a hard time finding one to test drive.

Ok I live the UK and we have really **** roads with potholes etc.
I came from a W213 E220d with 19" RFs and AMG line suspension.
Honestly the C43 Facelift on 19s RF ( P Zeros) is definitely more comfortable in Comfort mode. Small bumps, ridges, big bumps, low speed it handles it nicely. Obviously is not as soft as a non AMG Line / Non AMG E Class or C Class with 17s, but it's very comfortable especially as a daily driver.
My friend is visiting with his E220d AMG line Coupe on 20s, and even though the C43 has a sportier set up it's more comfy than that.
I think the 18s look a bit feeble, personally wouldn't get them .

2019+ suspension has been revised and it is miles better than 2016-2018

It's actually astonishing how good the ride is.

That looks really good! Is it a gloss black wrap or did you paint it? If a wrap, how difficult was it? I'm deciding which way i want to go.

New badges and the trunk and grill were wrapped. Everything including tint and a wash after the work took about 4 hours. They did say the grill was a bit tricky.

Yea I can imagine the front being difficult. Either way, looks clean!

Took the Wagon out for a drive on these amazing roads here in the Peak District. Basically like a huge rally stage . Perfect conditions for AWD, even flooring it in 2nd out of the bends, in the damp, it remained firmly stuck to the road. Sooo much fun on Sport +.
