2019 C43 AMG order - status, options, pics etc
Ordered the 2019 C43 AMG Coupe, with a winter rims and tires package (MB 18" 5-Spoke Forged).
On the waitlist and haven't received an ETA. I could only build my specs on the German site:
- Designo Selenite Grey Magno
- AMG Saddle Brown Leather
- AMG 19" 5-Twin Spoke Wheels
- AMG Matte Silver Fibre Glass Trim
- Premium Package
- Technology Package
- AMG Driver's Package
Hi Forest Jim. I’m from Australia too and ordered pretty much exactly the same spec as yours. However I’ve noticed that you can choose Saddle Brown with your luxury seat package. The dealer in Melbourne said I can only choose Black Leather with luxury seat package and they tried to put my order through with Saddle Brown and got rejected.
How you go with your order? Did your Saddle Brown Leather option go through?
I’m really annoyed with my dealer.
cheers
Hey, from my side was told car was released from VPC and being sent to dealer last week. Was supposed to arrive there on Oct 6th. System now shows it’s at a storage facility close to the dealer where many others have their cars also.
Apparently, MB Canada has sent over the cars out of VPC to create more room. A SA called head office this week to find out for me what was going on and he was told that though cars are certified and ready, they will only be released for sale in November. He said that I should expect to have my car my mid Nov...... :/
Thats the update on this side of the border. Another delay, more waiting... less excitement... more frustration. Lol
The Best of Mercedes & AMG




Horrible, horrible experience.




Please do let us know if you in fact end up seeing or getting the car next week.
Thank you!

LOL...... now its Mid November... Beginning of Oct, I was told it would be ready at the end of Oct and then it changed to beginning of November and now this is showing Mid November.
And based on that statement, it seems like it could be even later.
Wow. Pretty frustrating for sure.

I have no words. Don't think I will wait another month.. My Macan lease is going to expire November 10th.

My SA called me yesterday to email me financing and sales documents since the C43 AMG Sedan will be here before November 1st. It's built and in processing ready to be released by Merc USA.
Pretty excited too since the current Mercedes financing deal is 2.9 for 72 months- even my credit union couldn't match that... They could get 3.49 at 60 months. Ordered this back in May.

Yes, the dealer did also call me. It's up on the MB Aust site now you can only order Black with Luxury seat package.
It's not your dealer fault.
It's a shame I was looking forward to saddle for a change.
What Spec did you order? ??
I got an email a couple of weeks ago. My car was down for 21st Oct build
Cheers
Marty
