OP, do you mind if I ask about pricing you paid in the UK? I'm from Vancouver, Canada, and so far no one in North America seems to have any concrete pricing on MSRP or packages here. It's almost September!

To me it looks like this actually doesn't have the night package, if you look at the front pictures the lip and inserts aren't blacked out either (I like this look better especially with the grey did the same for my MY19 selenite gray build).

yep that's correct, I speced the black wheels on their own (only 19s option that was available)

Beautiful vehicle! I have never had a "Magno" paint and not sure how to keep it in top shape but OMG it looks amazing!

That car is a total stunner.
What I do with my Burmeister on the 18 is:
(1) disable surround effect;
(2) set to front speakers only.
This should give you more punch and slam and be more true to the source material. I find the system to be most like a good stereo system in this mode.
Make sure your music is 320 bitrate mp3. Lower quality source material will be anemic sounding.
If my ‘18 supported lossless .flac or .wav files, I would use it. I am stuck with .mp3, which sucks. Maybe they changed this on the ‘19.
Sick car!

Its been pretty straight forward so far ie wash with shampoo that has no wax and can finish with a matte sealant (which I haven’t yet), will see over time but seems not too bad. The only think is im reluctant to let a normal car wash clean the car.

Thanks will definetely give that a try! I mostly listen to Apple music so not sure the quality is that high, but was definitely surprised by the crackling of the speakers at higher volumes.

Awesome. Appreciate the pic and do post some more when yours arrives.
In North America we have been stuck waiting for a few months for our cars sitting at the port. Only going to be released at the end of Oct

We have never owned a "red" car in over 3 decades. We tend to stick with blacks, greys, whites...and our Porsche 911 which is 'midnight blue metallic'.....
So we have decided to steer away from the Magno paint....the matte finish is something that I am not certain I could keep up with. I have been detailing our cars and friends cars for years because it is fun....no way I could bring myself to deal with the matte finish...I would be really scared to make a "shiny" area.
With that being said those are MY limitations and if I could keep it up and looking nice I would definitely get one. We saw an Edition 1 come into the local dealer and both my wife and I were literally amazed at how unique it looked!!!! BEAUTIFUL.
Now the RED.....I think I need to have a sit down to go between the red and the simple white. The "diamond white" was a NO GO for us. It has some beautiful gold/yellow flakes that stand out in the sun. However, when that paint color is in the shade or overcast...it kind of makes the car look a shade of beige tending towards yellow.
Chaznik, did you go with the "night package"? It seems like you did from the black trim around the windows....it looks very classy!

Can you kindly confirm that the PE is definitely default/standard on the C43 coupe? It definitely said that on the brochure but it is not showing on my order form so I am a bit worried. Thanks. I am also in the UK btw

How did you manage to get 8k off the car? I managed to get 6.8k off and thought I was doing well.

re the discount I started at around 7k but managed to get a bit more due to an error in the quotations, prob just luck tbh

Thank you both for confirming this.
You guys probably had more options added to your car than I do which could have translated to more money off. In percentage mine was 12% off
