Yes, the answer is no at least for those of us with 2008 allocations.

they've decided not to put it. since the panoramic roof is just too heavy that it harms the handling of the car. as far as I know

Yea, too heavy for a car that already weighs over 4000lbs. I highly doubt that's the reason.

Oh yea, an extra 100lbs will surely slow down the C63. NOT! Its pure and simple, mbusa's call.

Axel at the AMG Performance Ctr said they couldn't keep the Pano in the C63. Too much torque. They kept cracking from the twist under load....

Wow, that is actually kinda impressive. Strange though because the E63 has more power and still has the option.

Bigger roof. Larger Chassis (more rigid I guess)

I don't know why anyone with a performance car would want all that extra weight in the exact place you wouldn't want extra weight.

It doesn't add much weight at all, but in a car of this performance level you dont want it. What it needs is a CF roof, with CF hood, and trunk to help shave some weight. Its a fat pig for what it offers, but a fun one nevertheless.

If you want a real performance car, get a Porsche. AMG are luxury cars.

What about the CLK 63 BS? I owned some Porsche's, including a Cayenne, which is anything but a real performance car.

OK, get a 911/Boxster if you want a real sports car.

As for the CLKBS, as I've said, nice car.

Are you sure you are not confusing the Pano Roof with the Standard Sun Roof in the C63??
