My dealer gave me a price that doesn't include gas guzzler tax. I'll try and get a break down and post if someone doesn't beat me to the punch.

2010.

C63

Options

Upgraded paint (Iridium silver)

Navigation System and Sound System upgrade

Back up camera

P2 (lights and some other stuff)

57,330 (10 percent discount due to order being placed 4 months ago).

I'll put the details up next week if no one beats me to the punch.

Supposed to be picked up on 31 Aug.

So, does that also include the Leather package, MultiMedia package (upgraded navi and sound system???? ), iPod, and TeleAid? Also, did you get MB Keyless Go?

F1MB

it's an option on the 2010 C300 sport, just looked on MBUSA $1,3** for the option.

hercdriver

Yes that does include keyless go. No leather or performance package.

sflgator

So, it's ~ $60k (incl. gg tax) for a '10 C63 AMG w/ P2, MultiMedia (???), Iridium Silver metallic paint, Keyless Go, & Back-up camera...so no leather (I hope you don't regret not getting the leather package), no perf. package, no iPod integration, and no TeleAid?

hercdriver

Actually the iPod is included in the nav package

hercdriver

I have a 5 year old so no I won't regret skipping the leather

hercdriver

Teleaid doesn't work overseas with the US spec car so I skipped it

Where are you stationed or located?

Actually leather is much easier to clean than fabric (although I would understand if you're worried about rips and such), even if you get the fabric protection. Try wiping up ground-in chocolate out of fabric; on leather, it wipes up 100% clean with just some soap + water. We have a 7 1/2 year-old and a 3-year-old. G/L and congrats on your new '10 C63 AMG...you're going to LOVE it!!

Ah, you went to Torpedo Garage. I am right up the street from you at Spangdahlem AB.

sjhugh

patboyy you are so right, the guys in the USA have it so much sweeter pricewise. My MY2010 cost $155k Australian Dollars, at todays exchange rate, that's equivalent to $185k US Dollars.

patboyy

yeah...that makes me want to move to states and live...just for cars...

sjhugh

It's the price we pay for being safely tucked away at the bottom of the planet.

Hi sjhugh,

when is your 2010 scheduled for delivery?

sjhugh

Hi DTMCLK,

Yes it is a MY2010 build date. I ordered it in late April and was prepared to wait for the MY2010. It arrived at my Sydney MB Dealer yesterday and will be available for delivery this Thursday (20 August).

Steve.

Is there any difference in standard option between MY2010 and MY2009?

Keyless is standard or optional?

Ipod integration is standard or optional?

sjhugh

There were only 4 options available, LSD, CF, Keyless Go & Electric Blinds. Everything else like leather, Audio/Command and so on is standard. I must say that the dealer wasn't so sure of the changes from 2009 to 2010, at the time I ordered there was little info from Germany. I knew the 2010 year model was on the way and asked that the order be held until it was available. As far as I remember iPod intergration is standard, though I can confirm that on Thursday.

DTMCLK

Thanks sjhugh,

I guess you will find out next week.

Cheers

sjhugh

A quick update. I picked up my MY2010 a couple of days ago and now that I have taken a break from driving and rubbing up against it, I can report the only differences I understand from the 2009 model already in Australia is a new key FOB and the Audio integration package. As Aussie’s know, their cars already arrive from the Germany almost fully loaded so options are few. The audio integration comes standard with an iPod connection, plus a 3.5mm stereo plug connection for other devices and a USB connection. The USB connection is great. It allowed me to plug in a 4GB USB Flash Memory Stick giving me an instant 900or so songs to play with full song title and artist info on the screen. It means I don’t need to use either the PCMCIA card slot or the hard drive to provide a lot of music to drive by.

Wait, I thought the 2010 C63 was getting DFI and had 500+ HP stock?

sjhugh

Mine doesn't have either.

I understood if the rumours of DI and increase power outputs were true it wouldn't happen until the 2011 models.

propain

I hate rumors.

Good to know though, it will help retain some value on the 09's.
