UNHAPPY WITH MB'S HANDLING OF YOUR PERFORMANCE PACKAGE ISSUE?

IF YOU'RE LIKE ME AND YOU ARE UNHAPPY WITH THE WAY MB IS HANDLING YOUR PERFORMANCE PACKAGE ISSUE CONTACT ME PRIVATELY AT RGESTEN@GMAIL.COM. Maybe we can ban together and get a better response. But first we need to know how many of us there are.

Unfortunately I don't think MBUSA is going to care.

If you already have your car and done your deal, MB could care less.

I agreed. If anyone wanted the full package, they should never accept the car at the first place. MB admitted the error, provided their solution and a handful of disgruntle owners is not going to change anything. However, good luck in your effort.

The key was not accepting the car in the first place. There stand will be, "I you didn't want the car, why did you take it?"

No hard feelings, but your argument is over. Write a formal complaint about the situating is the best you can do. Maybe something will come of it, but I would guess not.

I wanted a C63 W/PP and refused to take delivery of the non PP car that got delivered. I had my dealer give me a discount for my trouble or I would walk. I guess they felt it was worth keeping my as a MB customer long term, not making money on a one shot deal.

a quarter mile at a time
well, with the performance package, it's really really tough to tell the difference. The only visual difference would be the compound brakes and even then it's easy to miss.

I can't believe they are trying to make some of you pay seperately:

251 Delimitation of top speed to 174 mph $1,250

I saw one window sticker with just that added. Not many ever come close to 174mph.

I was told the PP brakes looks exactly the same... The Alcantara steering wheel would be the visual difference. My dealer might be wrong however.
