Talking Just a few more days now...YAHOO!

Still hasn't quite hit me yet, but I just received word that my car should be arriving this weekend or Monday the latest, and I will be able to take delivery sometime next week. All a bit surreal at the moment, but I'm sure it'll sink in once I see it.

I ordered Iridium Silver, P2, Multimedia/Nav, Leather pkg. I'll probably put a 26% tint on within days, and get some 19" 360 forged Multi in a satin black finish Shortly after a Brabus bullit style grille, carbon fiber decklid spoiler, black badges, and that should about do it for the exterior.

But anyhow, just wanted to let the board know that they're almost here, so you might want to stay tuned with your local dealer this weekend, you might be able to see it in person

Hopefully I'll be able to post up a comparison next week between the E55 and C63 as well.

Brabus doesn't sell Bullit parts individually.

Yeah I know I was planning on having a carbon fiber grille replicating the Bullit fabricated. I'm not sure if Evosport would be willing to do it but they said they can have custom carbon fiber parts made for the C63 like they did with the CLK BS. I might start by asking them...anyone else interested in a CF Bullit style grille? I'm sure they would be more interested in a project like this if we could get a long list of potential buyers.

Hey man, congratulations. That is awesome news. That being said, you need to give us one hell of a write-up with tons of pics after you get your hands on that beast!

Yeah i'm interested to see how the 360 multi's look in black? are you going with black centers & chrome lip or blacking out the full rim incl lip? I also have ordered an Iridium silver w/mpp & mnp = Prem Pkg & Nav Pkg. I to have also been contemplating the 360 forged but the spec five instead. & blacking out only the centers & leaving the lip in chrome. Cheers! hope you get it soon! PS as far as tint goes I'll probably go a little heavier in the back.

I'm planning on going with a satin black center, and a gloss black lip. The spec fives are nice as well. I like those, but I think they are a little too open? Can't really go wrong with either imo though.

Wow - I didn't realize they were going to be here already. Where in the NW are you? I'd love to go for a ride, or even drive it! I'll trade you for a drive in my Ferrari.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I will definatley take some pictures and give you all my impressions. Will be a good opportunity to practice with my DSLR. Hopefully I can get it tinted this weekend too and put some pictures up.

Btw Raven, I'm up around Seattle. Sure if you're up in the area you can come check it out, a ride in a Ferrari sounds like a blast too I need to get the thing broken in though before I start hammerin on it, hopefully the weather cooperates so I can put some miles on it.

Talked to my local dealer and there Black C63 is supposed to be of the boat on Friday and at the Dealer by mid next week. The guy who ordered it backed out. The cars fully loaded and they mentioned almost 65K. That sounds high to me for a non p30 car?
