2018 C43 AMG Coupé, 2020 AMG GT53
2018 C43 Coupe's now available!

Hi guys just went to the dealer to order my c43 coupe and the dealer told me I could only order a 2018 model as orders for the MY17's closed on the 24th of March. I wonder if the dealer just ran out of allocations to build a 17. Anyways heres a copy of the 2018 dealer ordering guide for all C coupes.

Apple CarPlay is now available as well in 2018, but it seems that you cannot get it with the 8.4 inch display and touch pad, maybe due to head unit hardware incompatibility?

Interesting, I like the new AMG Performance Studio Package, might be tempted to swap the front grille on our C43 when/if this comes available in the UK.

322 AMG Performance Studio Package:

 AMG Night Package (P55)

 AMG Performance Steering Wheel (281)

 “Edition” badge on cup holder cover (can be deselected with U81)

 Front grille with black pins instead of chrome and AMG logo

 19” AMG matte black Multi-Spoke Wheels with high sheen rim flange (RVD)

 High-gloss black elements: Side sill inserts and trunk lid spoiler

Is Mercedes getting rid of their endless premium packages?

And now driver assistance package is back to being a standalone option (with premium package required)?

I guess MB have finally listened to the ppl complaining about not having manuals in their line-up. You now get to row gears in some models, most likely not sold in North America...

it also looks like they did away with halogen lights standard. The LED are standard now and the ILS or Active system is the only upgrade. They are finally starting to get something right.

we'll see what they do with the sedans this year, though

Does anyone know if these changes would apply to Canada as well? We seem to have different packages and options.

Any chance you also got the sedan order guide?
Thanks!

Very interesting... it looks like this is the actual OEM bumper. How did they get it so quickly?

It looks like there's a floor shifter!

It also looks like they got rid of the suspension options for the coupe. The "sport-tuned suspension" is now standard.

Anyone know if an updated version is out? There's something weird with the suspension options in this one.

It lists a "sport-tuned suspension" as standard. That's the current standard suspension for the coupe. For MY2017, the sport package gets you the "sport suspension" standard. Last year's DOG lists the sport suspension as 486; "sport-tuned" is 677. This year, there's no mention of a "sport suspension"; just the "sport-tuned" one.

BMW 435i 2015, on order 2018 c43 or 63
I like the standalone options. You pay for what you want.
Everyone here in Florida gets white or grey. About to submit my order and I am torn between cardinal red or blue.
The choice of interiors is perfect. Most offer only black / grey like Audi.
Personally I like traditional gauges over pictures.

Where do you see the option for Nappa in the c43. It's only for the c63/c63s.
