Picked her up on Thursday last week, but kept it in the garage until the weekend. Really enjoying it. She goes for ceramic coating tomorrow. Sorry for the lower quality pics, they were all from my phone.

I finally took delivery of mine last week. No pics yet since the weather in Toronto has been pretty crappy. 4 month overdue.

Congrats! I took delivery of mine a week ago Thursday and the weather here in Denver has prevented me from taking any pics of it clean as well but I finally got the chance to snap a few over the weekend.
My car is Emerald Green, it's nearly impossible for me to capture the true color with my potato phone.

I'm going to debadge it just before I have the paint corrected and a ceramic coat applied. I'm really looking forward to seeing the true brilliance of the paint once it's completed next week.

Great spec. Love the green(wish it were available for the coupe!) with the saddle interior. You have the same booster seat I crammed into the back of my coupe.

Thanks! It's a really nice color-combo, I just wish Emerald was a little lighter shade of Green...I mean, I know it's Green but I every time I look at it I swear it's Black.

Hmm it seems my car left on a train from Alabama to NJ on Feb 8th. It’s showing on the dealers inventory and delivery date of Feb 21st. SA wasn’t really sure of the location on where it is and said it could show up at any time. Anyone have a similar experience with this delivery method? So close yet so far!

I had a similar experience, my car showed up 6 days before the estimated delivery date, maybe yours will be sooner as well

What's the total time from ordering a sedan and receiving you guys are experiencing?

Maybe data on both altered builds and fresh builds?

Hello everyone,

I'm a newbie here, still feeling a bit "nervous", since as I see, there're lot of US-related members here, and I am from Poland, a EU country, where english is not a primary language ... So, 1st of all I want to apologize for potential language issues

I currently drive a 2016 Audi A4, leasing contract ends in several months, and I decided to switch to something different. After several testdrives with BMWs (335d, 440i), Alfas (Giulia QV) and even Kias (Stinger GT (Sic!)) I finally chose C43.

Well, (shame on me), in the past, Benz was equal to a old man, with a hat, driving 70kph around. Maybe that's the main reason, why facelifted C43 impressed me so much. The agility, handling and the engine sound was so great, that I simply could not resist and finally ordered one.

https://www.mercedes-benz.pl/passeng...-qr_ci-summary
(in polish, hope it's still not a problem for you ...)




Delivery is expected at 07.2019 (ordered 02.2019). According to dealer, the South Africa plant has now some capacity problems, so AMGs deliveries are all delayed. Well, what can I do, just find more patience ...

Pricing in Poland (comparing to those in US ) are very high, mainly due to tax-policies. My specs (nothing special) is about 100k USD, but once in a lifetime, I can make a "unreasonable" thing, don't you think ?

Regards,
Matt.

Welcome, even the US/Canada C43's we're delayed during initial release for one reason or another. Just know it's worth the wait!

Mine got delayed the day after I put down the deposit Haha

I was supposed to get it end of April. Now I'm getting it end of May. A few options are the main reason for the delay from what I understand.

Whelp, never thought I'd be back in a MB but deal was too good to pass and nothing really competes IMO. Went super standard spec for the most part:





Going to be throwing the wheels I used on my c450:

C450 2016
leasing a C43

I'm 30 months into a 36 mo. lease on a 2016 C450.Got 11.5% discount off MSRP- paying $610/mo ($6500 in mult. security deposits). Rec'd a letter from dealer offering to get me out of lease and into a new C43 for $66 more per month, without specifying options/colors,etc.on a 42 month lease.So I visited the dealer- 1-only offering 48 month leases, which is too long IMO- 2- most of the cars in inventory have summer tires (why sell summer tires in the winter). Most in this forum are recommending all-season tires.3-Most of the cars available come loaded with options I don't want, with msrp's 67k to 75k, whereas the cars I built on the mb website were 61-64k. and 4-they were only discounting them 4-5%. So all the leases were in the $690-730 range. In summary, the leases were long, the discount was IMO inadequate, and the options were not to my liking. Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the show?
