Aw yes! After all the waiting...lots and lots of WAITING, I finally was able to take possession of my 2018 C43 Coupe. I'm excited, but need to get the snows on because the streets aren't super clear here in Calgary. A few [poor quality] phone pictures below.
Went with all the packages. Night, AMG Drivers, Premium, Intelligent Drive, and LED Lighting. Also got the AMG Performance Seats...and they look a treat!
Really digging the looks of the ride myself. Too bad it’s stuck in the garage, teasing me to take it out for a spin. I refuse to do so until I get the snow tires on. Even though most streets are dry, I can’t shake the fear of being one of those guys who wrecked his new car with less than 100km on it. How exactly do you tell that story without looking like and idiot! So...the next time it leaves the garage (tomorrow), it goes straight to the tire shop.

Wait what wheel option is that? looks like the C63s? couldn't find that here in vancouver
19" matte black wheels that comes with the "AMG night edition" package i believe. I have the same ones and it comes with summer tires so i needed to get a separate set of 18" wheels with winters on them.
Congratulations Mecca , beautiful car . Could you tell me how long was the process from placing the order to actual delivery ? I'm in Canada and have been told when I order my C43 cabrio it will be 4 months delivery from Germany ? Also did they give much of a discount on MSRP ?
Thanks in advance

In Canada, you should be able to argue for a discount all the way up to 7 percent.

Thanks!
3-4 months seems about right. I placed my order in mid-August and didn’t get my car until last weekend. So about 3 months exactly. I would plan that long and if it comes early, all the better.
As for discont, this was a battle and a half. They weren’t willing to budge nearly as much as they do for our neighbours to the south. I ended up at 7% when all said and done...but this included an MB program incentive.
Thanks for info Mecca . I'm in no rush now with winter coming , in fact I may wait another month or so because I don't want a cabriolet arriving in February !
I'll be getting my winter tires this weekend. 18" as well...though I'll miss my 19" for the winter...lol
That first snowmageddon hit while I was away from town...made driving home from the airport pretty interesting...
Thankfully I picked mine up late August so I've had some time to go out and enjoy the car. Now I'll have to behave myself for the most part... :*(
I put snow shoes (Pirelli Sottozrro 3s) on my 19s, and so far they’re pretty awesome.
I plan to lower the car and add 20s in the summer. We’ll see. If I don’t do that I get a diff set of 19s for summer driving action anyhow.
Now, who wants a brand new set of Conti run flats for a very special price!?
Mecca,
I have 20's on order and should be here in spring and also plan on lowering the car at some point and maybe when the warranty expires. Would love to see pictures when you have the 20's and the lowering. Hope to see you around town.

How much for all 4? If under the odd instance you are willing to sell just one, I'm just looking for a front tire to replace one that took a bit of a beating.
