Just saw 6! C63's

I just saw 6!!!!!!!! C63's live and up close. Snaped some cameraphone pics too. I can't post them from work but I'll get them uploaded tonight. They were german spec, didn't even have VIN numbers on them. I even got to sit in one, and had it started and reved up. The sound is incredible. Not as deep as the old 55 motor, but it sputters and sounds mean as hell.

it's not that they didn't have them yet - these particular cars won't get US VIN numbers. They are german spec test cars, all the interfaces are in metric and the Command came up in german.

That's just a matter of changing the settings, no?

I'm telling you guys, this car will be amazing.
No Performance Pack? Fine.
No Keyless Go? Doesn't bother me.
Harsh ride? Couldn't be harsher than my coilovers.
Wait until you see it in person and hear the sound, you'll love it.
I'll take one.

AMG GT-R

Thanks for posting up the pictures! I ordered my C63 in Iridium Silver but wasn't 100% convinced this was the color I wanted, but after seeing your phone pics I think this color really suits the characteristics of the C63: sporty, aggressive, mean

My other 2 choices were Palladium or Black, but I've only seen 2 bad photos of the car in black. I see at the end of the line in one of the pictures a black C63, have any others of this color?
